Hello! I'm Meghan, from Los Angeles. I've been married for 28 years, and we have 2 children and a granddaughter. My native language is English, but I’ve been speaking Spanish fluently since the age of 9, when my family was transferred to Guayaquil, Ecuador for my father’s job.
I’ve been teaching for over 15 years in self-contained classrooms, small-group and one-to-one interventions in elementary, middle, and high schools; most were Title 1 and/or dual language schools. I hold dual degrees in Bilingual/Bicultural Education and Spanish Language & Literature, and I have a current California Multiple Subject teaching credential in good standing.
I believe learning happens best when students are at the center of their educational journey. As your tutor, I guide you through hands-on exploration and independent thinking, using the gradual release method - I demonstrate while explaining my thought process, then we practice together, and finally you'll work independently with confidence.
Most importantly, I prioritize building genuine connections with each student. I'm naturally warm and approachable, often sharing stories that help us connect because real learning happens when students feel comfortable and understood. Whether you're struggling with concepts or looking to excel further, I'll meet you where you are and help you discover your own path to success.
