Desiree B.
Private tutor in Baltimore, MD
Education
Spanish Major at Boise State University
Experience
-I want to be a tutor, because I have always loved helping others, especially in regards to education. I have tutored before and am currently involved in a tutoring and mentoring program through an organization in my city. University Tutor is able to reach many people, which is appealing to me. -I was a Spanish Major with an English Minor. With my current job as a paralegal, most of our clients are Spanish-speaking, which has definitely improved my speaking skills and understanding of daily use of the language, outside of the formal structure that is taught at a university level. -As I mentioned before, I am involved in a tutoring and mentoring program here in my city with high school level kids. - I have worked in the legal field for 5 years -I am also fluent in Portuguese

Hobbies
-I feel I am still relatively new to Baltimore, being here almost three years, so on my spare time, I enjoy exploring the city and the surrounding area. That includes going to new restaurants, museums, farmer's markets, or going for the day to a surrounding town/city. -I love to bake and cook, especially for other people, throwing dinner parties. -Languages are a huge part of my life as I speak Spanish all day at work, and my family is Portuguese, so I am able to speak Portuguese with my family when I come home. Because of this, I also really love to travel and visit new countries and cultures. -I come from a large family with lots of cousins, and I am very close to them. I have learned a lot of patience and understanding through them.
