Experience
I graduated from the University of Miami, and I have dual degrees in Journalism and Creative Writing. I received my master's degree in Education from Lesley University, and taught in Washington, D.C. from 2010-2014. I taught Math to middle school students, and Reading for grades 5-6. I am an avid reader and writer. As such I have shared a lot of my know-how with students who are looking to improve how they approach reading. I witnessed an improvement in the reading level of numerous students.My tutoring style is to help guide students into being to understand the "why" of things. This makes it easier to find answers. I also enjoy opportunities to work with my students on an individual basis. I can then adjust my tutoring strategies to what works best for each one. I tutor Elementary Math, Middle School Math, Writing, Reading, Essay Editing, Literature, Grammar and Mechanics, Arithmetic, Pre-Algebra, Public Speaking, and African-American History. My interests include black history, reading, movies, and sports.
