Fun Facts

I am always reading. I used to be quite embarrassed about it but now I can be seen proudly parading my book of the week around. I also write poetry almost daily, a lot of which is formulated in my head and then later logged on paper if I am so lucky to remember my mental poem. I am passionate about all arts, such as visual and music, but I do know my talent is writing.

About Me

I am a senior at San Jose State University. My major is English Teaching Prep as I have always been passionate about the english language. After graduating, I hope to receive my teaching credentials at SJSU or UCLA. My goals as a teacher are to travel and spread my love for language around the world and also at home in California.

Experience

As a student, I have had hands-on experience with overseeing a kindergarten class in L.A.. The teacher who conducted the class was very helpful in allowing me to participate as a tutor. I felt it truly inspired me to want to teach.
As far as real-life experience, I am my families go-to person for any questions on grammar, spelling, punctuation. I am grateful to have been blessed with a mind that is enamored by language, and for this reason it has been very easy for me to learn and also teach.

Approach

My experience with teachers throughout my entire education has ranged from satisfactory to excellent. I remember being able to pick-out which of them actually seemed to care about us or which of them was there for their paycheck. It can be discouraging to be taught by someone you feel isn't inspired to motivate. I want to serve as a reminder that help is always around the corner and that with the right mentality something can always be learned.
