Experience
Dear Students and Parents, I am a professional educator with a strong background in English and Math and experience working with students of all ages and ability levels. I can help you reach your goals of staying on track in the classroom, appealing to top colleges and universities, or leaping ahead in your career. You will gain much needed confidence, discover strategies and formulas for success, and practice thoroughly so that the "real thing" will be easy by comparison. Allow me to show you how I will be your personal catalyst to the success you deserve. I possess two teaching credentials and currently teach at a charter high school school in San Diego. I previously taught at a K-8 school. My efforts have included designing curriculum plans for English Language Arts and preparing students to excel on standardized tests including the SAT and the new Smarter Balanced exam. I have also tutored my students in Algebra, US History and Science. Through these efforts, my students have improved their reading scores, performed well on common assessments, and reached learning goals in the classroom. The greatest reward, though, has been helping my students work towards a promising future. Even before I became a full-time teacher, I had several years of experience relevant to teaching. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in journalism and worked in the field for five years as an editor, reporter, and online producer in Washington D.C. At one newspaper I managed a team of college interns, working with them on their writing skills. At an online publication I directed a Writing Workshop for high school and college students. Later, I worked as an academic tutor for a company specializing in SAT preparation. I then launched a private tutoring program, focusing on English and Math instruction. During this time I helped students prepare for exams and achieve desired results in their classes. I also assisted families in making important educational choices. If you are serious about working hard to meet all of your goals and strive towards a fulfilling future, contact me and we will get started right away. Thank you. Sincerely, Boris T.
