Alyssa H.
Private tutor in Longview, TX
Education
I have a master’s degree in Religious Education (secondary ed. major and elementary ed. minor) from Texas Independent Baptist Seminary and Schools in Longview, TX. While a student there, I was thrilled to be able to teach at my church’s elementary school, high school, and day care, receiving hands-on experience working with various age levels and subject material. Before moving to Texas to attend college, I also had previous tutoring/substitute teaching experience working with fellow students and assisting my high school principal, beginning my tutoring career in the seventh grade and substituting for a teacher for the first time in the eighth grade. Now I teach and tutor fulltime working with students of various grades, learning styles, and special needs; and I absolutely love it!
Experience
Over ten years of tutoring experience with various ages and subjects (private tutoring and experience at a local tutoring center), ACT composite score of 31, perfect ACT English score, 4.0 GPA through high school and 3.9 GPA through college, scholarship offers from several Ivy League schools including Harvard and Yale, various scholarships and scholastic achievement awards from high school and college along with several leadership awards and character awards from athletics. I absolutely love every aspect of teaching and learning, and I have deeply desired to teach in a Christian high school since I was three years old. I enjoy any opportunities I receive to tutor young people (of any age needing help with any subject). To see others finally “get it” makes my world! I consider myself an extremely dedicated tutor: I care about my students, how they do in school, and how they do outside of school. I take the time to slow down and learn about each of my students so I can make learning come alive for them at their level using previous knowledge and interests to pave the way to higher achievement.

Hobbies
I love all things education (hence why I’m a tutor and a teacher) but I also LOVE sports - all sports: basketball, soccer, and softball especially. I have played since I was younger, earning the coach’s award in softball, leading my high school basketball team as the captain, and being irreplaceable on my soccer team as the tireless midfielder. When I am not exercising, I also enjoy honing my piano-playing skills or writing in my spare time.
