Hi, I'm Kendra! I graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Oregon, where I received my BA in Spanish and Political Science. During my undergraduate years, I participated in two study abroad programs, one in Fortaleza, Brazil and the other in Querétaro, México. I then went on to receive my Teaching Credential and Master's in Teaching from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) with a Bilingual Certificate. I have spent the last five years teaching in the general education elementary classroom. I have taught second & third grades, with two of those years teaching in both Spanish and English in an immersion program. I have experience with students learning English as a second language and students with an IEP. I have spent the last year as a private tutor in Spanish and English Language Arts for students ranging from grades K-5. As a teacher, I prioritize the whole student and am constantly seeking ways to differentiate my teaching methods and provide unique scaffolds in order for each and every student to find success.

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Political Science at UCLA and have a strong background in English, History, and Japanese. I am also proficient in K-8 math and science and have previous tutoring experience in these subjects. My experience includes both one-on-one and classroom settings, as well as volunteer experience. In English, I have a deep passion for language and literature, and I am fully proficient in both written and spoken English. I have completed two semester-long research projects that required me to analyze and synthesize complex texts and communicate my findings effectively in writing and speech. My skills in critical thinking and analysis, combined with my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly, make me an effective tutor for students of all levels. In History, I have been nominated for an award by my high school teacher for my exceptional performance and passion for the subject. I have experience creating engaging presentations on historical topics and enjoy exploring different cultures and time periods through the lens of history. As a tutor, I can help students improve their research skills, develop a deeper understanding of historical events, and prepare for exams with confidence. In Japanese, my experience attending Japanese heritage schools for 10 years, tutoring students in Japanese language during Japanese club, and being fully proficient in hiragana, katakana, and kanji has given me a deep appreciation for the intricacies of Japanese language and culture. As a tutor, I can help students master the basics of Japanese language, develop cultural competency, and gain a greater appreciation for the rich history and traditions of Japan. Overall, my combination of educational background, previous tutoring/teaching experience, and contextual details such as the ages of students and the setting of my teaching experience make me an ideal candidate for tutoring in English, History, and Japanese, as well as K-8 math and science.
