I am a second generation American, as my grandparents migrated to the United States from Spain. My dad is fluent in Spanish, yet he had a hard time teaching me the language as a young child. Thus, I e... nded up taking Spanish from grades 4-10, and for my first two years in college. I love learning the language and all of the Hispanic cultures. My goal is to help English speakers strengthen their speaking, reading, and writing abilities in Spanish and give them first-hand experience I have as a Spanish woman. I am passionate about my culture and want to educate others more about Spain and the language itself!read more

Hello! My name is Katie Martinez and I am from Columbus, Ohio. I am a second-year student at Ohio University, so I currently reside in Athens, Ohio. I am an animal lover, I have two dogs and a cat in ... Columbus and a dog and a cat in Athens. I am also a fan of true crime cases and enjoy listening to podcasts. Some of my favorites are "Crime Junkie" and "Going West." What I enjoy about tutoring is knowing that I can help others who may not have access to proper resources to grown in their education. I have needed tutoring myself in the past, and it helped my test-taking abilities and overall grades immensely. My tutoring philosophy is assuring my student knows it is okay to make mistakes and not know an answer to something, because that is what I am here for! When someone tutors with me, I want them to feel accepted and not judged. I have ADHD, I have struggled in many subjects throughout school, so I want my student to know that I understand the struggle and am here to help guide them through it.read more
