Is your middle-school­ child struggling with homework? Does your high school student need help preparing for the SAT? Want to help your child improve her grades but don't know how?

I am a private tutor currently seeking new learners in the peninsula area (from San Mateo to Mountain View). I'm a college graduate from UC Davis with degrees in Sociology and Psychology and I have extensive experience working with young learners spanning middle school and high school. I have volunteered one year with the Redwood City Project READ program as a drop-in homework instructor as well as a one-on-one tutor for 6 different learners. Currently I work part-time as a tutor with College Track, a local organization­ that provides academic help for students that are the first to attend college in their families. My students encompass a variety of learning needs including English as a second language, gifted students and students struggling with their coursework. I am committed to providing a tutoring experience that will deliver real results and teach your child the basic skills to succeed in any class.

*Developing action plans based on students' and educators' academic goals
