Experience
I am a certified secondary teacher in the state of Texas although I currently reside in New Mexico. I have taught on various levels from high school to university levels, both in class room settings and private settings. When tutoring students, I try to show them ways to understand the material and how to learn it efficiently, not just memorize the material to pass a test. My goal is to help students really to understand the subject. I teach methods that are true learning techniques that can be applied outside the classroom and tutoring sessions. I am fluent in Spanish as well as English. I have also published several articles and one book so far. If you are an international student I can help you because I have Taught English as a second language for many years. I understand linguistic difficulties that student have when English is not their native language. Since I have also learned Spanish, I know what it is like to struggle with learning another language. For my own benefit I am studying Russian as well. Even though I have not yet mastered the language, it keeps me sharp and reminds me of what it is like for a student to struggle with another language.
