About Me

I am a graduate of Georgia College and State University. At first, I was an accounting major, but was drawn to the education side and received my Bachelor of Arts in Education with a focus on Mathematics. Before and since graduation, I have traveled extensively, tutoring children of ages ranging from 5 to 18. While working with the Georgia Baptist Children's Home, I tutored English to both Chinese and Spanish speaking indigent children of varying literacy levels. These children were in varying stages of either deportation or entrance into the US foster system. While I have a math background, I am also passionate about helping students who struggle to understand English. While living in Germany, I worked with German students who were taking classes in English as a second language. They were learning not only proper English grammar, but also how to navigate homonyms and homographs in which they were struggling. In my opinion, helping students who were stressed due to Standardized Testing was my niche. I endeavored to help students think about how they could make connections to the questions they were answering, this was whether it was in the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams, or extended Math word problems. I truly believe having a sound and well-rounded education is necessary for an improved quality of life. I strive to pass on the joy of being a life-long learner. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and also writing stories. Although I have a fondness for science fiction, I write all kinds of genre. I also enjoy spending quality time outside and swim time with my family and dogs.
