A small written assessment will be sent after each class. In this class, assessments will primarily consist of personal assessments conducted by the teacher through observation of students during class sessions. These assessments serve to gauge each student's understanding, progress, and engagement with the material covered. Various types of assessments, such as coding exercises, project presentations, and participation in discussions, may be offered periodically to provide a comprehensive evaluation of students' learning. Assessments will typically be conducted in class to ensure real-time feedback and interaction. While participation in assessments is highly encouraged for all students to track their development and receive tailored support, they are not mandatory. However, engaging in assessments offers valuable insights and opportunities for growth, making them a beneficial aspect of the learning experience.Class Experience

We learn best what we can teach. My teaching style involves self-directed learning, which builds self-confidence and critical thinking skills. Many parents agree that my strengths are that I am knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging throughout lessons. I believe in building a strong rapport with students, which fosters a love of learning. The content is based on the learner's needs and parent requests. Meet one-on-one with students to assist in the areas related to science, technology, engineering, and math. This includes computer programming, understanding scientific and mathematical concepts, practice solving problems, and homework review. Coding classes can include software dependent on students' level. Unplugged (no software; on paper), Kodable, Scratch Jr, Scratch, Code.org, and others upon prior approval. Tutoring includes: Evaluation Personalized Learning Communicating Progress at regular intervals Our first-class together will be an analysis of needs. Please send a general subject and knowledge you wish to be included in this class prior to the lesson time. If you are interested in this class but don't see a date or time that works, please send me a message to let me know what schedule you may be looking for. I may be able to accommodate you.

Great teachers form strong relationships with their students by engaging them in the subjects they are passionate about. I have always been a logical thinker who enjoys science, math, technology, and engineering both for work and play.
I worked as an engineer for companies like Frito-Lay, Anheuser-Busch, Amgen as a consultant for many years improving their systems with automation and equipment. Once I became a parent, I began teaching extra-curricular classes as a way to have more time at home, but stay involved in subjects that bring me joy.
Realizing that by being warm, professional, and enthusiastic, I am able to engage students. My creative lessons and strong classroom presence help build student confidence while increasing interest in subjects that may otherwise seem intimidating.
