I am a certified secondary-level English teacher in Texas, and I have been tutoring and teaching for the past 10 years. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2012 with a degree in English education and minors in math and Spanish. In high school, I tutored at my local library and did assistant teaching in a local elementary school, and in college I tutored at the university in writing and conducted study sessions in Spanish. After I graduated, I taught ESL in a bilingual elementary school in Spain and tutored adults preparing for English exams. Most recently, I spent one year teaching in a private English academy in South Korea, and I have just recently moved back to Texas. I love being a tutor because it allows me to give personal attention to and completely focus on a single student, which traditional classroom teaching often does not. I believe that a solid education is necessary and that anyone can achieve as long as they put true effort into their work. When Im not teaching, I love to read, watch superhero TV and movies, and travel.
