Summer S.
Private tutor in Cerritos, CA
Education
I attended UC San Diego for 4 years of college, and graduated at the top of my class in International Economics, with a minor in Communications and Latin American Studies and a GPA of 3.5. I also studied abroad in Brazil for one year, at the Pontifical University in Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio). I studied Latin American Studies while I was there, and all of my courses were in Portuguese. So I can definitely help you learn Portuguese too! After I received my bachelors degree in 2008, I went on to pursue my Masters Degree in Education. I have not yet achieved it, but have a few more classes to complete.
Experience
I am an experienced elementary, junior high, high school, and college level tutor. I have been tutoring for over 12 years and I absolutely love it. I love seeing the reaction of students when they finally understand what they are learning, which also builds self confidence! Tutoring is one of the most fulfilling things I have done and would be delighted to help you or your child.

Hobbies
I love helping people. Anything I can do to help others makes me happy. I don't know if that is considered a hobby, but I think it should be! Some of my more traditional hobbies are crochet, photography, and shopping. I also like listening to different kinds of music from around the world, and learning about international cultures.
