I’ve been in the tutoring business for about 4.5 months, so I am fairly new. But, I absolutely love the job! I love the interaction that I get with working with the kids, and getting to help them improve in their learning skills. Seeing them improve makes me smile, because I know that I’m helping them get one step closer to reaching their full potential I know they are capable of. I love working with kids, because I’ve always had a knack for knowing how to communicate and interact with them. And that’s why it is my dream to be a teacher. I am dedicated to my work, I am dedicated to helping our youth and I would love to work for you.

NOTE: Since I pay for each potential request I reply to, I may not respond if I am not a good fit for you (student age, subject matter, etc.). I don't mean to seem rude, but it's Tutors.com's policy that we pay for each reply. Thank you for your understanding. I am a reading and writing specialist. While I do tutor standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, etc.) and can improve your student's skills, I only tutor the verbal sections. I believe it pays to hire specialists.

Important information: I can only tutor after my regular work hours. After 5pm I can tutor for one hour 3 days a week and on weekends. Prefer online unless in the Mira Mesa/Scripps Ranch area. Traffic is prohibitive otherwise. When I chose my college major, there was no doubt in my mind that English and everything about it would be perfect for me. I have spent my life studying words, reading, writing, arranging, and rearranging words to communicate in the most efficient and effective way possible. I love to help students improve their grammar, find the main idea when writing an essay, or better understand literature. Having gained an understa...

I also work as a tutor for Do Your Homework at the Library (DYH@L), where I tutor students K-8, but sometimes high school and college as well. I have also been recently been accepted to tutor on tutor.com (the Pierson's Review tutoring service). And I have a master's degree in progress. First of all, I have a passion for helping students, which is why I have worked with students my entire life. Second of all, I enjoy the process of breaking down problems into smaller, more manageable steps and planning out how we are going to attack them. Working with smaller steps makes problems less overwhelming, easier to understand, and easier to solve. T...
