- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes, I am a Toastmaster member where I have continued to develop both my leadership and communication skills. I broke the world's record being the #1 Toastmaster earning the most education awards within a year (July 1, 2013-June 30rd, 2014) by earning over 40 education awards. I have the extraordinary honor of earning the highest honor Toastmasters can earn which is Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) award. Less than 1% of all 280,000 members earn DTM Award. Toastmaster Educational Program has allowed me to create educational presentations & seminars that can help more than one student at a time. Through Toastmasters, I was able to transition from 1-on-1 tutoring to now tutoring large groups & audiences.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
When I was 15 years old back in Tegucilgalpa, Honduras. I used to have hard time at school and struggle with my classes especially Mathematics. Then, a classmate of mine named Gerardo tutored me and I realized that his tutoring sessions created a lasting impact on me. Within 6 months, I went from being a F student in Math to be a straight A. I started even winning Math competitions and I proudly represented my school in Math Competition with Gerardo. My work became well-known and I started being hired as a Math tutor and the rest is history. It has been now 15 years of experience tutoring and this is truly my dream job! My commitment is to impact the students I serve in the same way Gerardo did.
