Private tutor in Long Beach, CA
Education
I graduated from UC Berkeley with a BA in Economics in 2010. My GPA there was a 3.68. After, I worked for Pacific Gas & Electric in San Francisco. During that time I learned to take care of customers and get them through the process happily, efficiently, and professionally. Eventually though, I wanted to work in a field where I could help people in a more specific way. With that in mind, in 2015, I completed a post-baccalaureate program at CSULB. I gained the equivalent of a bachelors in Speech-Language Pathology. I have also played piano for 22 years. While that is my main instrument, I also can play guitar, ukulele, and viola.
Experience
My brother always struggled in math growing up, and so I helped to tutor him. He has a creative mind and is quite brilliant, but the way math is commonly taught in school was difficult for him. I enjoyed using his passion for animals to help him learn math. This meant less frustration for him and less frustration for my parents. While high school is far away now, I know I passed all my AP tests, and recall that I received a 5 in Composition, Environmental Science, and Calculus BC. I have solid SAT and GRE scores as well. I want to help you succeed at whatever you want to succeed in! I find joy in making others happy and less frustrated with whatever it is they want to learn. I would be happy to help you achieve your goals.

Hobbies
I'm currently a bit of a housewife, so my current hobbies include outings of any kind (especially ones that involve the ocean), and learning new recipes to try on my husband and friends (preferably the delicious ones). I have always liked music, reading, and writing as well. I love to learn new things. I'm also learning to care for the children at my church through singing times. My availability is rather flexible, so please do not hesitate to contact me!
