Experience
I have been an elementary school teacher for two years, so I can help with elementary level math, reading, writing, and English. Also, I tutor literature, grammar and mechanics, American history, science, math, and social studies. Science and math are my greatest passions, but I can tutor just about any elementary school subject and have been working with young students for several years. I enjoy including experiments and encouraging kids to think creatively while teaching. The most important traits needed for learning, however, are motivation and independence. My strategies are engaging, and I have the experience and ability to motivate students so they want to be independent in the way they learn. This enables them to be enthusiastic about learning long after they move on from my instruction.I attended the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, which is where I got my bachelor's degree in education. Elementary education is what I have invested my entire career in. I now live in Portland, Oregon, and just love the outdoors so much, I get out whenever I can get a break or time off. Playing games is another pastime I enjoy, but I also find enjoyment in engaging in intramural sports.
