Hi! I’m Yasmine Prasad-Bogart. •	
I have my Bachelor’s in English Language and Literature from Southern New Hampshire University as well as an A.A.S. in small business management and Equine science from Cazenovia College and I also spent two years studying math and English education at SUNY Cortland. I am also a member of Sigma Tau Delta, the international English Honors society and am currently enrolled in the MFA program at SNHU for Creative Writing which includes the education certificate for teaching writing online. 
I have several years tutoring experience, both with the Liberty Partnerships Program, tutoring at-risk and STEAM teens, as well as private tutoring in all subjects including mathematics, Spanish, science, reading and writing.  I’ve coached youth sports, including cheerleading, soccer, and baseball and taught horseback riding to all ages and ran summer and school break programs. I am a homeschooling mom to my two youngest children; we are heading into our fourth year this fall and I am very active in several online homeschool communities. Just like I want my students to be lifelong learners, I am always looking for new things to learn so I can grow.
As the mom of three kids with ADHD and other issues that often need extra support, I pride myself on working with my students to help them excel in all ways. This can be accomplished by teaching with a variety of methods, including visual and audio learning styles, kinesthetic learning styles, and more. Being flexible in learning and teaching methods is something I feel is key to a positive learning environment. As a teacher I strive to listen to my students so I can always find the best method to work with them. I feel if students have a teacher who loves her subject and is passionate about it, they will be passionate about it as well! 
I offer a multitude of classes, particularly in Literature, poetry, and writing as well as other subjects. Students in my class are encouraged to participate in open discussion and to ask as many questions as they can possibly come up with! I also use a variety of visual aid such as presentations and videos, whatever will work best for presenting my material and engaging the students. 
When I’m not teaching, I can often be found with either a book or a video game controller in my hand or in the kitchen cooking for family and friends.
