Education
Cal State Dominguez Hills - BS, Public Relations
Experience
I earned my bachelor's degree in communications with a concentration in public relations and advertising from California State University Dominguez Hills. I also hold an associate degree in journalism, and am currently working toward a master's degree in education. I've worked as an educator for over two decades. My experiences in the field of education are widely varied, and include working as an administrator for universities and high schools, teaching middle school and high school classes, coordinating mentorship and tutoring programs, and serving on the Board of Education. I am a passionate educator, and I believe that every child is capable of academic success. I love helping my students discover their innate talents and gifts. As a tutor, I believe in using positive reinforcement when helping students with challenging material. I encourage my students to be determined and persistent when faced with challenges. I'm able to help students with reading, writing, literature, grammar, public speaking, American history, social studies, and religious studies. I can also assist students who are preparing for the ACT, ACCUPLACER, SAT, and SSAT. I find it very rewarding to help students meet their academic goals!When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy doing Zumba, practicing yoga, and shopping.
