When I first meet a student, we do several activities that dispaly his/her strengths and weaknesses so that, after talking about goals, we focus specifically on those needs. Many of my students have stayed in contact after they've moved away, and I've been invited to quinceaneras and weddings in several countries. The things that students often tell me are that they're really comfortable working with me, that my positive attitude encourages them to never give up and that they appreciate my endless patience. I love to see the joyful expressions on students' faces when they succeed in something that's been a challenge .......

On a more personal level, I am a friendly, outdoorsy, athletic, and talkative type of person! I partner with students on a one-on-one basis in STEM subjects through SoFlo Tutors, my tutoring agency.

As a current college student with 4+ years of tutoring experience, all K-12 material is still quite relevant and fresh in my mind. I have worked with a variety of ages, from kindergarten all the way to seniors in high school. I get to know each student individually as well as get to know their personal goals. I will provide quick, concise responses for those in a hurry, and slow, methodic teaching for those looking to understand the material on a deeper level. I welcome parent feedback and will alter my methods based on parental goals as well.
