English tutoring by an qualified teacher. Recieved B.A. in English at University of California Santa Barbara.

About the lesson

I teach my students to have fun, be safe and to be kind. Those are my basic rules.

I find myself learning about the child and how to support thier learning process. Each child needs to be approached differently. For me each child is an opportunity to help grow a strong personality. This child is capable of communication verbally, in writing and reading.

About Portia

I am a English major who has served in multiple writing based jobs in the business world. Most recently I worked for a not profit and helped plan a social circus tour. I wrote letters to people in Mexico to see if they would support us.
