Fun Facts
The first thing people notice about me is that I am happy. I am outgoing and fun to be around. I am the only child of my mother and the oldest of my father. In my free time, I love to read and learn Spanish. I catch myself picking up books that are completely in Spanish and reading them. I have traveled to Spain in May of 2015, and I am planning a trip to go back as soon as possible.
About Me
I am first-year Graduate Student at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. I am studying Mental Health Counseling- Clinical. I graduated from The University of Virginia's College at Wise with a Bachelors of Science in Psychology in May 2018. My ultimate life goal is to become a Licensed Professional Counselor and own my own practice, so I can teach others how to be a great counselor.
Experience
While attending The University of Virginia's College at Wise, I tutored Spanish 1 and 2 for a year. On the side, I tutored students privately in their courses ranging from elementary to high school for two years. I was excited to show students the fun way of learning information that they may believe is boring. As I went through the classes personally, I focused on finding fun and creative ways to study and remember the information.
Approach
When I was younger, I used to be able to repeat any information I was given. As I grew older and the content in the courses became harder, I had to find ways that would help me retain the information that I was learning better. I used to beat myself up for not understanding the information like I used to; I I began to read for fun, which helped me compare the school content to my books. As a tutor, I plan to encourage students that it is okay to change study habits to fit what they are learning.
