Lydia R.

Private tutor in Norwalk, CA

Education

I recently graduated from Biola University with a BA in Sociology and minor in Communication Studies. In the near future, I plan on getting certified as a Mental Health Rehabilitation Specialist and my Masters in Social Work so that I can create holistic secondary and higher education programs that support a student's emotional and behavioral well-being in addition to intellectual capacities.

Experience

For as long as I can remember, I have been passionate about helping others understand difficult concepts. I went from helping friends with homework and study skills in middle and high school to guiding students through difficult lessons as a teacher's assistant and private tutor in college. As a day camp counselor and director for a historic site in Long Beach, I have also had plenty of experience teaching elementary-aged children in a fun and engaging way. In addition to my experience teaching at the primary, secondary and higher education levels, I have also helped students with a wide range of subjects: reading comprehension, history, writing, psychology, sociology, algebra and, my favorite, statistics.

Hobbies

I am extremely social and love to get to know new people from different backgrounds and ages. It is my love for people that drives much of the work that I do. I have a creative mind which leads me to enjoy arts and craft, dancing, video editing, acting and creative writing. I have been nick-named "The Energizer Bunny" due to my own energetic nature and my ability to energize those around me. I approach all that I do with passion, zeal and a smile. I also love cleaning and organizing and I have a knack for event planning.
