In my over 16 years of teaching I have taught 5th grade, middle school English, history and math as well as PE. With this experience I have always wanted to tutor so I can help students achieve more in their academics. Even though I haven't tutored in an official capacity I have tutored unofficially many times over my years of teaching. I believe the one on one attention that tutoring allows for gives a student that needed extra attention that will aid in bettering their academic success.

Writing to me is a form of art. When I have taught writing I have tried to instill that into my students. It can not only be a precise endeavor, but it also can and should be a creative one. Each person has a voice and I try to help students find theirs.

I am currently teaching 6th grade math. My experience with this will allow me to be an effective tutor at this level and for levels below that.

Government and politics is more of an avocation then a vocation for me. However, my pre law degree allowed me to study government and politics and I have taught 8th grade history. Part of the curriculum in 8th grade history is the Constitution which is a big part of government.

I encourage you to contact me to learn more about my experiences and qualifications to be a tutor. I look forward to hearing from you.
