"Math and Spanish are in my blood and have been a huge part of my life. When I was in 8th grade I had the opportunity to be selected for an engineering program for Hispanic 7th & 8th graders called "El Ingeniero" which encourages Hispanic kids to enter the science and engineering fields. It was a great experience which led me to obtain my Operations Research & Industrial Engineering degree from Cornell University. It wasn't an easy road to get to because it took lots of hard work and persistence. It made me a better person for it. Since my parents are Ecuadorian, I spoke only Spanish until I went to kindergarten. Then, I became bilingual. My parents always encouraged me to speak, read and write in Spanish. They understood that knowing more than one language would be essential in the future. Spanish is one of the most spoken languages in the US. Throughout my academic and professional careers, I have had the good fortune of having tutors/mentors help me achieve my goals.
I would like the opportunity pay it forward by helping students who are struggling in math and Spanish achieve their goals. It takes hard work but I am willing to do my part for the student's success. I can tutor at your home or meet at an agreed upon location. However for a discounted rate, you can come to my home or meet online for your tutoring session. I look forward to hearing from you." less...
