Experience
Hello! I recently graduated from University of California Davis with a duel Bachelor's Degree in English and Anthropology, and a minor in German. While attending school as an honor's student, I worked as a TA for UC Davis' prominent English department. I strongly believe that in order for students to truly do well in their classes, and on their exams, they have to enjoy the process of learning. I also believe that a positive approach to literature, mathematics and core subjects is the key to helping students get good grades. I currently substitute teach as an elementary teacher in Tacoma, WA. I also volunteer for many ESL programs in the Tacoma/Seattle that focus on acclimating international students to American culture and the English language.

Hobbies
I speak both Spanish and German with my foreign language students, and am constantly striving to create memorable and interactive lesson plans. As an animal lover, I love to rescue animals. I currently have four very spoiled cats and one blind dog. Creating a positive learning atmosphere where my students can flourish is my main goal. I have worked with a great deal of students on bettering their ACT/SAT scores or prepping for their TOEFLs. This is my area of expertise, and I think my students would agree! I'm a very well-rounded individual, and can help you or your student on a variety of subjects. I work as an elementary school substitute so I strive to stay on top of as many subjects as I can. Contact me with any questions you may have, my schedule fills up quickly for the fall and I'm very quick to reply!
