During high school, I was a Spanish Tutor for students in years below mine. I always excelled in school particularly in reading and writing. I am comfortable doing English k-12 and math or science k-9.
During high school and college I tutored a child with autism and adhd. I did this for about 5 years. I also tutored one of my friends during high school, both in all subjects. Math and science come easily to me and I took advanced classes in both during high school. Look forward to meeting you!
