Description of tutoring experience

I provided tutoring assistance to a 15-year-old girl with Tourette's Syndrome in 9th grade, covering all her subjects, exam preparations, and developing study plans. I persisted in supporting her until her grades showed improvement, and she gained the ability to maintain them independently. I tutored a 14-year-old boy with Asperger's Syndrome, offering support with homework and study sessions. I continued this assistance for over a year. Eventually, based on my contributions and in collaboration with his parents, the decision was made to transition him from mainstream high school to a specialized education program tailored to his special needs.

Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, I am a diligent and hardworking individual who prioritizes the needs of children above my own. I am committed to putting in the effort required to ensure optimal success for the kids in my care. While I possess a gentle and nurturing nature, I am also capable of being firm when necessary. My genuine passion for working with children will be evident in my dedicated approach to the role.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I excel in meeting deadlines and maintaining effective organizational skills. My remarkable people skills, coupled with strong communication abilities, allow me to engage effectively with others. I am always willing to go the extra mile in areas that require additional effort, demonstrating my commitment to achieving success.

Hobbies and other interests

I have a deep passion for music and find joy in immersing myself in various genres. I possess abundant patience, particularly when it comes to interacting with children, and I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with them. Additionally, I have a keen interest in reading, finding it to be a rewarding and enriching activity.

She was excellent! Lovely bubbly personality. Excited and positive. Our son's marks increased by up to 50% when she helped him. I can recommend her with pleasure. She is a pleasure to have around, and our son loved her.
