I love teaching children and helping those who are struggling. As for me, a child's development cannot be fulfilled until he/she overcomes the hardships of thoroughly understanding knowledge.
I have worked in after school programs for three years and have homeschooled my children from first grade through third grade. I also have worked with a 3-year-old, helping her learn English and later with math and reading and writing. I am patient and creative in my teaching.
