"My name is Trinity, and as a fellow student, as many and most of us are, I understand the struggle of falling behind and not understanding certain subjects. For me, it was math, however I excelled in English and Language Arts. It was also a subject I really enjoyed, and I found I had a knack for helping those who struggled with it. Through helping peers, I soon learned I was able to help others too, including those older than myself and younger.

I have two years of tutoring experience through tutoring peers and classmates (free of charge) while in college. I graduated cum laude with my Associate Degree from East Central College while being a member of Phi Theta Kappa. In addition, I am currently employed as a classroom para who teaches students with disabilities and IEPs, so I have experience teaching as well.

I believe in an individualized approach to learning. I acknowledge and understand all student learn differently, and I adjust my teaching methods to the individual's needs. If students need real world examples and application to better understand, I will include those in my instruction. I’m also able to adjust the rate at which I teach, meaning if an individual learns better at a faster or slower pace, I’m able to go with their preferences. Most importantly, I understand students may require more explanation and effort to be able to properly understand a topic, and I believe patience is key while teaching.

I enjoy being able to extend my knowledge and understanding of ELA to others and seeing them succeed where they were once struggling.

I’ve met many people who stopped pursuing a subject because it was something they had a hard time with, however I believe they weren’t given the resources they needed. I would love to be a resource for those who may want to pursue their interests in ELA, or even those who are just having difficulty understanding it, and help them improve and gain understanding regardless." less...
