About Me

I went to Hunters Creek Elementary, Kinkaid Middle School, and Kinkaid High School, before traveling to Georgia for two years at Emory University. After receiving an Associate's in Arts, I returned home to Houston to finish my degree at UH; it was there I discovered I didn't just not hate politics, I was actively fascinated by them. Thus, my plans to become an evil scientist working undercover at the CDC were thwarted by a latent preoccupation with government. Stuff happens, I guess. I have tutored middle school math and English, as well as introductory college and advanced high-school math and English. I have excellent test scores and great patience.

Q&A with Diana

I like to approach any teaching job as a problem of motivation. If the student wants to learn, the actual learning is as easy as falling off a log. It is much, much harder to learn when you're unmotivated, so that's what I like to focus on. That said, this "long-term view" must be weighed against the immediate need to catch a student up to the performance level of their peers. I find, however, maintaining strong respect for the first challenge ends up seriously diminishing the second.
