Experience
I've been licensed to teach kindergarten through 6th grade in Virginia since 2009. As my career has moved forward, I have worked in various extracurricular time enrichment programs and have volunteered as a tutor for kids of various ages. I teach key strategies to help students learn independently, focus on study skills, and think critically. To do this, I look at how answers are found or discovered and I also ask questions that are essential to the topic. I spent three years in the Dominican Republic with the Peace Corps, working as an educator and Youth, Family, and Community Development volunteer. While here, I developed fluent Spanish skills.Currently I work for a Baltimore City education nonprofit. It supports middle school scholars in an afterschool and summer program. I recruit, train, and coach a team of tutors which now stands at 120 and growing. I now teach elementary math, reading, Earth science, public speaking, science, and Spanish.I love individualized and small group tutoring and value the opportunities that each provides. The student-mentor relationship supports focused mutual learning. When I am not embracing the tutoring process or work in general, I like to read, run, sail, and go on outdoor adventures.
