About me
I am a highly skilled tutor with 16 years of experience. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Business with a minor in Spanish. I worked in the legal document management field for 20 years before having to switch gears and help my son. His transition from elementary to middle school had him almost failing. As I refused to let that happen, my passion for education allowed me to jump in.
After working with my son and some of his friends, I wanted to help more children. I worked at a couple of learning centers around the metro Atlanta area. I learned how to tutor and better communicate with other parents.
Now, as I continue to homeschool my son, his grades are exceptional, and he independently communicates with his instructors. I would love to pass the same passion for education that I have onto as many children as possible. I have learned that using my patient demeanor and understanding of different learning styles, I give children the confidence they need to help them both academically and socially.
