Fun Facts
One passion people quickly learn about me is that I love music, art, and literature. I grew up on a farm in rural Washington, but have roots in big cities. My mother is Chilean, and I often visit Santiago Chile. I also recently lived in San Francisco for two years, which was a lot of fun. Another fun fact, I grew up in the area of the Twilight series! Though I haven't read the books, I am still a fan.
About Me
I am getting a master's degree in TESOL (teaching English to students of other languages), with an emphasis in Ed Tech, from the University of San Francisco. Studying is my life right now. Eventually I would like to teach within higher education, but I am open to working with students of all age groups.
Experience
I have worked in numerous tutoring non-profits, both dedicated to academics and writing coaching, and teaching English (ESL). I am currently wrapping up my master's, having been a teacher's assistant for several community college classes. I have also worked closely with families as a pod teacher during COVID, and am familiar working with students virtually.
Approach
I know I am meeting my students where they are when I can make them laugh. From this place, I take it very seriously to ensure students are meeting their academic goals, bringing their all to tutoring, and finishing all their assignments. If I am creating the curriculum, I ensure that my students are front and center, seeing that their needs are met.

Homework Coach Tutoring
I have over 3 years of tutoring middle school students academically. I strive to serve as a coach, to push my students towards their best work. Homework is a great place to apply pressure, as it is both critical to content comprehension, as well as in building academic discipline.
Math Tutoring
I have a knack for math. It was something I really labored over growing up. Because of this, I have an excellent ability to tutor math, especially middle school math, breaking concepts down to students' levels, and gauging for understanding.
Reading Tutoring
I love reading. I want to work with more students on reading. Scaffolding reading is a lot of fun for me as an educator, and it is a real pleasure helping students digest reading material, and even help students summarize their texts into essays or informal presentations.
Elementary Math Tutoring
There is nothing more fun than elementary school math. We will use blocks, and shapes, and integrate games into our learning. I have experience working with all elementary school aged students.

I received a BA in English literature, and am eager to help students meet their English class goals. I have experience tutoring students in essay writing, research papers, and analyzing literary texts.

Basic Computer Skills Tutoring
