Fun Facts
I'm a very outgoing and artistic person. I love acting, directing and anything to do with theater and film. I'm also a bit of a film addict. I like to challenge myself and try new things at any opportunity. I can also juggle.
About Me
I am a senior Psychology/Theater major at Pacific Lutheran University. I have an Associates of Arts from Pierce College. I am also currently working as a Behavioral Interventionist for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I eventually plan on going on to my Master's in clinical counseling.
Experience
I worked at the Pierce college tutoring center for two and a half years where I tutored a variety of subjects. I also worked as a Supplemental instructor for Pierce College for their Pacific Northwest History class where I created lesson plans and helped students. I have also worked in several educational settings teaching children about history and pioneer living.
Approach
I feel it's important to fit the study sessions to the student's learning style to maximize our efficiency. In my experience I love to find a way to make things interesting and fun as much as I can. I also feel it's important to encourage students throughout the sessions. I'm also a firm believer in the Socratic method of tutoring to help student's find the answers themselves and foster study skills and help them become successful in all their subjects
