Late afternoons everyday and saturday mornings
My approach to teaching is student-centered. I focus on understanding each learner’s strengths, challenges, and goals so I can adapt my methods to them. I like to break down complex ideas into clear, manageable steps, while also encouraging critical thinking and independence. I balance structure with flexibility—using practice, real-world examples, and interactive activities to keep lessons engaging. My goal is always to help students build confidence, not just get the right answers, but truly understand the material and feel capable of applying it on their own

“I’ve been tutoring for 3 years and have worked with students of different ages and skill levels. I’ve helped classmates, younger students, and even family members with subjects like [list your key subjects—math, reading, languages, etc.]. What I’ve learned through these experiences is that every student has a different way of understanding material, so I focus on finding the approach that clicks best for them. Whether it’s explaining concepts step by step, practicing problems together, or using real-life examples, I make sure the student feels supported and confident.
My mission
My mission as a tutor is to help every child discover their strengths, build confidence, and develop a love for learning that lasts beyond the classroom. I’m inspired by the moment a concept ‘clicks’ for a student—the spark of pride and excitement that comes with understanding. Tutoring gives me the opportunity to meet kids where they are, nurture their unique learning styles, and create a supportive environment where growth feels possible and fun
My Story
I grew up in Caracas, where my love for learning started early but didn’t always come easily. Like many students, I faced my own learning challenges, and those experiences taught me the value of patience, encouragement, and finding creative ways to understand tough concepts. Along the way, I had incredible mentors—teachers who saw my potential and inspired me to one day support kids in the same way.
Today I live in Florida, where I balance my work with the things that bring me joy—whether that’s painting, cooking, music, etc. Spending time with family and friends, or exploring new ways to make learning exciting. My journey into teaching and tutoring grew out of a desire to give back: to be the person who can help kids feel capable and proud of themselves, even when the subject feels intimidating.
Life now feels full-circle—I get to combine my personal experiences, my training, and my love for kids into work that’s both meaningful and fun
Cognitive Diversity
How I adapt to students with diverse intellectual needs.I believe every student learns in their own way, so personalizing lessons starts with listening and observation. I pay attention to how a student processes information—whether they’re more visual, auditory, or hands-on—and then I adapt my methods to fit. For children with learning differences, I focus on breaking tasks into clear, manageable steps, offering consistent encouragement, and celebrating progress to build confidence. With gifted students, I make sure they stay challenged by introducing deeper, more complex material and encouraging creative problem-solving.
Overall, my goal is to create a safe and supportive learning space where every child—whether they need extra patience, advanced enrichment, or both—feels understood and excited to learn.
I’ve had the privilege of working with children with ADHD in both academic and play-based settings. I understand that each child’s needs and strengths are unique, so I focus on meeting them where they are while keeping learning interactive and enjoyable
