Maya D.
Private tutor in Peachtree City, GA
Education
Bachelor of Science in Chemistry (Minor in English), summa cum laude, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida (2003)
Experience
When working with students, I like to find new ways to explain and approach a particular subject matter and also help kids connect what they are learning to something they may already be familiar with. In my profession, the feedback I was given when training others is that I'm great in helping others find the answers as opposed to just presenting them with the answer. I have experience working as a marine chemist and also as a laboratory technician. Recently, I traveled aboard to Latin America where I studied Spanish in Mexico and Peru, and volunteered as an English teacher in Guatemala. I tutored both elementary and middle school kids while in college and I also worked as a sailing instructor. Having experience working with kids helps me relate to them and makes our learning together fun.

Hobbies
I love to travel, the outdoors and staying active. When I lived in Florida - where I lived for about 15 yeas - I was an avid sailor, and enjoyed boating, scuba diving, snorkeling and anything around the water. I'm currently a volunteer at the Georgia Aquarium. In my spare time, I spend a lot of time with my friends and family. I can't stay away from my nephews :)
