As soon as I learned how to read it's something I've always been passionate about. It was my favorite subject starting from elementary all the way through high school. I love reading books, poems, nov... els, and also writing my own literature. In high school, I participated extensively in book clubs as well as receiving A's in all my English/Reading classes. In my book clubs, we would each read a paragraph out loud throughout the entirety of the book, which helped all of us with effortlessly pronouncing and declaring our words clearly. Having a sibling who grappled to understand reading for most of their life , I understand first-hand the struggle of trying to learn how to read. I believe this makes me a proficient tutor for those who are looking to advance their skills in reading because I can understand the difficulty. I have an extensive background in tutoring and coaching students in order to advance their reading skills. l worked with an after school special needs program where I helped several students with their speech class where they had to publicly read passages and long speeches in front of the entire class. Some of the students I helped moved up two reading levels and others were able to move to a more advanced class. I currently tutor my fellow peers at college in reading. I specifically focus on helping freshman with words that are harder to recognize and with reading long passages fluently and accurately; which is something I've seen most people struggle with.read more

Hi I'm Haley! I was born and raised in the Bay Area CA, and am currently attending California Polytechnic Pomona to pursue a degree in Political Science. I'm hoping to transfer to UC Irvine in the nex... t year to continue my studies. I have been tutoring students in reading since I was in high school and was excited to continue in my college years. I focus mostly on the subject of reading but also provide a few lessons in English. I believe reading is one of the most fundamental skills someone can have because most of the world is based around people's ability to comprehend what is written. Besides tutoring, I love working in philanthropy in order to help those who are less fortunate so they can have some sort of an education. One of the main reasons I tutor is to offer my assistance and the knowledge I have in order to help those who need extra guidance. I have continued tutoring in college by working with my peers who struggle with the subject of reading. I understand that even in college there are students who aren't up to the highest reading level and I love helping them build their confidence and develop a plan for their future education as well as the jobs they'll have beyond school.read more
