Kyle: Glendale Heights tutor

Certified Tutor

"A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." -Henry Adams

I hold a A.B. from the University of Chicago in Visual Art. During my time as an undergraduate I also took three years of biology courses, worked in gene sequencing and plant molecular biology labs, and, as a TA, taught undergraduate discussion and lab classes. I held a National Merit Finalist scholarship and received multiple grants from the Student Fine Arts Fund to make and exhibit art. I completed the Teach Baton Rouge alternative teacher certification program and obtained Louisiana L1 certification in Biology and K-12 Art. I also hold a Virginia SOE for those same subjects and grade levels. I have three years of teaching experience in the East Baton Rouge Parish School System. In 2011, I was a National Crew Leader with the Student Conservation Association. I recently completed my M.A.Ed. in Gifted Education at the College of William & Mary. This fall, I will begin my Ph.D. in Art Education at Virginia Commonwealth University. I have experience providing individualized instruction in a variety of public, private, and nonprofit settings with students from grades 3 12, including the East Baton Rouge Parish Credit Recovery Program. I believe that my training in Gifted Education has prepared me to provide highly effective interventions and/or acceleration for students starting at all ability levels. I believe strongly that all children deserve access to a high quality education.

I welcome the opportunity to help your child reach his or her maximum potential.
