Experience
I have more than fifteen years of teaching and tutoring experience across many disciplines and in a variety of international educational systems. In addition to traditional subject material (mainly focusing in the humanities and social sciences, but with good expertise through the undergraduate level in the sciences as well), I am also well versed in test preparation, writing and organizational skills, and flexible and creative approaches to learning. I have taught one on one, in large classrooms and lectures, in graduate seminars, and in K-12 classrooms. I am an eclectic teacher - in fact, as my day job, I am a professional ballroom dancer who owns my own company! I believe in the growth and potential of each individual student, not any pre-established system or approach. I'm fun, dynamic, enthusiastic, and good at matching a teaching style to the learning pattern and personality of the student. * A note about rates; the way that UniversityTutor.com displays rates does not accurately reflect my rates. I am based in Altadena, CA (91001), and my rates are $75/hour within a ten mile radius of that zip code, and $95/hour outside of it. Thanks!
