I own a B.A. in Liberal Studies-Teacher Education and 23 years' experience teaching Kindergarten-12th Grade as a: tutor (12 years), lead teacher (11 years), substitute teacher (9 years), teaching assistant (4 years), and full-time volunteer (1 year)--in public, independent private (co-ed, and single-sex), parochial, cooperative, immersion, and charter schools. I have penned three published nonfiction books. My second book examines children with special needs, compares the roots of various learning differences revealed in unique life scenarios analyzed over time, and emphasizes the importance of music in education. My third book provides insight on different types of schools in America, and is a memoir of my own years of school as a student and work as a teacher. My YouTube channel contains original videos featuring math curricula for elementary and middle school (arithmetic, pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry) and written descriptions of the given math content. As an educator, I enjoy showing students the beauty of the academic concepts they learn. I deliver my instruction through a call-and-response methodology. I ask students questions pertaining to the academic content at hand by relating what they are learning to elements of everyday life and have them draw their own comparisons and realizations. I encourage students to connect what they are learning to their own interests to make new discoveries as they take in knowledge through hands-on experience. Overall, I emphasize the importance of correlating elements of different academic core subjects to help widen the spectrum of knowledge and enhance student understanding of what they learn. I only offer online tutoring. I am on the West Coast.
