Kay

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, LA. I received my Bachelor of Science in Accounting. Since graduation, I moved to Houston, TX where I began working for the Houston Independent School District in administration. I decided to obtain teacher certification by attending Houston Community College. I then began my teaching career in Houston teaching first graders, which I truly enjoyed for three marvelous years. During the summer months, I worked in a tutorial program for at-risk students tutoring high school students in algebra. After teaching in Houston for three years, I moved back to my home in Louisiana where I became a middle school math teacher for the remainder of my career before retiring in 2017. During this period I received a masters degree in education. I have deeply enjoyed my journey of working with students. I believe in going the extra mile to help all of my students achieve success. I did not mind getting to school at 6:00 am to not only prepare my classroom for the day, but to be available to tutor those students who were in need of extra help. I am a firm believer that education is a necessity in every child's life if he/she is to be successful. I tried to impart this into the minds of every child who crosses the threshold of my classroom each year. What I truly enjoy doing in my "me" time is cuddling up with a good book, cooking a favorite recipe, working out at the gym, or calling to check on acquaintances.
