About

Hello. I am a retired Spanish teacher and I have worked on and off as a tutor for over 30 years. I tutor math, Spanish, English as a Second Language, GED and ASVAB. I always try to make a lesson that is tailored to my students needs. Besides my teaching experience, I am a notary and an officiant. I am able to perform marriages, baptisms and funerals.

She’s honestly the best tutor ever. I don’t think I would’ve passed my ASVAB without her, for real. She believed in me when I didn’t even believe in myself. She takes her time to explain everything and actually makes sure you understand it, not just memorize it. You can tell she really cares about her students, it’s not just about the money. Her prices are great too, super fair. Thanks to her I passed and I’m now joining the Coast Guard! I’m honestly so thankful for everything she did for me. If you’re trying to pass your ASVAB, trust me, she’s the one you want helping you.

Details: Graduate school • Arithmetic / general • 26 - 44 years old • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc. • Remotely (phone or internet)

Sheila was our Officiant for our wedding. She was very outgoing, showed me what she was going to say if we wanted to change it up, we could and made sure everything was all set for us. One of the best I believe. If you ever are in need or want an Officiant she's your go to. You won't be disappointed!
