Fun Facts

I was born and raised in Chicago and have always attended public schools, and ALL of them had an eagle as their mascot. My dream career as a child was to be an author and in middle school through high school it was to be a private investigator. My dream careers have always been influenced by the books I read and the teachers I've had, so I take great stock in education and literature. I consider myself to be a global citizen and have been a devout reducer, re-user, and re-cycler for over 25 year

About Me

What I enjoy about tutoring is getting to know people as learners and incorporating real-world connections to the concepts. I am a lifelong learner who loves getting to know people, so I enjoy learning how other people learn so I can apply those strategies to myself and others. I loved the work I did with high school youth because I got to create a nurturing community and work directly with young people who want to be the change they wish to see in the world.

Experience

Ms. Camille is a Certified K-8 Educator who tutors in all subjects PreK-6th. She was also a Youth Voice Advocate and High School Program Coordinator who created and facilitated student-centered events and workshops with teens to develop youth identity, agency, leadership, and character. She believes in making learning personal, funny, and relatable to the real-world. She enjoys getting to know her students so their learning relates to their lives.

Approach

Much of teaching is planting a seed, where learning may not come to fruition until after the student has left the teacher. Planting the seed is about the teacher never leaving the student. In addition to planting the seed, my style of tutoring focuses on creating an engaging, interactive, and validating learning experience that ensures the soil in which the seeds are planted, is healthy and ready to receive the seeds of learning. This is my art of teaching.
