I have been a tutor for 2 years and have experience working with students of all ages and abilities. I am comfortable working with students one-on-one or in small groups, and am able to adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of each individual. I am patient and supportive, and my goal is to help my students succeed.
I have a strong background in math and science, and have tutored students in these subjects at all levels, from elementary school to college. I have also helped students prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT and ACT. In addition to academic tutoring, I have also worked as a swim coach and a camp counselor, and have experience working with children with special needs.
