About Sara
I am a perpetual learner. I truly love learning.
But I didn't always feel like this.
Before 8th grade, I despised learning because I thought I was "not good" at it. It was not until I met my 8th grade trigonometry teacher until that all changed.
She believed in me, and put in the extra effort to teach me the critical skills it takes to learn a new subject. She gave me a completely different perspective on not only learning, but on the rest of my life as well.
Students abilities in the classroom are directly correlated to self confidence, and I know this first hand.
If it wasn't for my teacher in 8th grade, I likely would not have gone on to get a full scholarship to the University of South Carolina for Econ and Computer Science, let alone landed a job on Wall Street years later.
I'm now 25 years old and want to be able to help other students the way my teacher helped me.

Teaching Method and Techniques:
Assessment of Student's Needs: I begin by assessing the student's current level of understanding and identifying areas where they need assistance.
Interactive Learning: I encourage active participation through discussions, questions, and problem-solving activities. This ensures that students are actively engaged in the learning process.
Adaptability: I tailor my teaching methods to suit the learning style and pace of each student. Whether it's visual aids, practical examples, or analogies, I use various techniques to make concepts easier to understand.
Encouragement and Support: I create a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes, as I believe that making mistakes is an essential part of the learning process.
Typical Lesson Plan:
Introduction: I start by reviewing previous concepts and establishing the objectives for the lesson.
Main Content: I present new material using a variety of methods such as explanations, examples, and visual aids.
Interactive Activities: I engage students with activities and exercises to reinforce understanding and encourage critical thinking.
Practice: Students are given opportunities to apply what they've learned through practice problems or real-life scenarios.
Review and Feedback: I review key points covered in the lesson and provide feedback on student performance.
Homework: I may assign homework or additional resources for further practice and reinforcement of concepts.
What Sets Me Apart:
Personalized Approach: I understand that every student is unique, so I adapt my teaching style to meet their individual needs and preferences.
Holistic Understanding: I focus not only on helping students grasp specific concepts but also on developing critical thinking skills and a deeper understanding of the subject matter.
Accessibility: I am readily available to answer questions and provide support outside of scheduled tutoring sessions, whether through email, messaging platforms, or additional resources.
Passion for Learning: My enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious, and I strive to instill a love of learning in my students.
Who the Lessons Are For:
My lessons are suitable for students at various levels, from middle school to college and beyond. I specialize in subjects such as mathematics, Spanish, language arts, and FINRA licensing exams. Whether a student is struggling with basic concepts or seeking advanced guidance, I am committed to helping them achieve their academic goals.
