"I have a Bachelor's of Public Health degree with a minor in Spanish for Health Professionals. As a college student, I gained about 3 years of classroom experience tutoring elementary students (first and fourth graders) in math, reading and science at a K-8 school in Garfield Park, Chicago. I also have a year of remote tutoring experience as an English as a Second Language (ESL) tutor for adult Spanish speakers learning English.

The most rewarding part of tutoring is getting to see the light-bulb moment for students when they finally understand a difficult concept. To accomplish this, I use patient, engaging, and personalized approaches for all of my students that build upon their foundations in reading, writing, math, and language. I try to incorporate hands-on activities, positive reinforcement, and clear explanations so that our tutoring sessions feel both fun and productive. My ultimate goal is to boost each student's confidence by providing them the skills they need to succeed in the classroom." less...
