My name is Diosa Adams. I am passionate about young people and fell in love with Middle School students in my second year o fundergrad, tutoring 7th graders in Math at a Title I middle school. There I learned so much of the “stuff” blocking student learning was not numbers but life circumstances, boredom, apathy, caused by lack of connection to the material or academics to life goals. I took that inspiration to my career and launched a program for middle school students on the path to become the first in their families to graduate from college. There, I led big kids (high school and college students) in teaching middle school students, and created a culture of inspiration and big dreams that led to leaps and bounds in learning! 

As I have moved through life, my career, and now parenthood, I have expanded my experiences with kids from pre-k - 12th grade and beyond. I love working with youth - finding what they are interested in and seeing what they have yet to learn. My approach in programs, the classroom, and my home, is always student-centered and accountable. We will set goals and skill-build towards them as we are all teachable.

Here in Outschool I want to work with your kids on public speaking, communication, conflict resolution, and just growing their emotional intelligence, sense of wonder, and inspired action towards tangible goals. Please let me know how I can be of best service to you and your little or big kids!
