Experience
I would like to be a tutor because I truly believe that every child deserves an opportunity to an education and receive the help they need in order to take full advantage of that education. When I was in school, I received tutoring for numerous subjects and would not have excelled in my courses without this extra help. I know how important tutoring is and how children can reach their full potential with this help. I work with children in preschool and teach basic reading, writing, recognition of shapes, numbers, etc. Also teaching about current event issues in wildlife conservation and current events. I have worked in wildlife conservation and have research experience working primarily with chimpanzees.

Hobbies
I love to work with children and teaching them about conservation issues. I lived in Africa for six months where I rehabilitated chimpanzees to reintroduce them back in the wild. I love recounting my experience to the children I work with because not only are they interested and want to hear my stories, my experience has influence on them to become more aware about these issues and perhaps one day pursue a career in a related area. I volunteer weekly at the Honolulu Zoo with the chimpanzees and have been working with them for three years. Besides working with children, working with animals is my passion. I have completed two research projects at the zoo, with one project up for academic publication. Other hobbies include doing yoga and exercising, reading, writing, traveling, and pursuing research.
