    (10)
    I am a 34 year old teacher. I have a B.S. in Marine Biology from the University of California, Santa Cruz. I am currently finishing my teaching credential in the next couple of weeks. I have taught at an after school science program for underprivileged children as well as done tutoring throughout my undergraduate program. I taught swim lessons for ages 6 months- adults for two years including with the Autism Speaks program. I was a Dive Control Specialist with a Scuba shop in San Diego for several years and enjoyed it very much. I love to teach and watch people learn.

    Crissy is so helpful with biology. She takes her time on the first lesson to learn how you learn. I found her very helpful and she made learning biology easy and fun for me.

    Crissy was fantastic with our son and got him back on track with his Algebra studies. She was professional, yet engaging and connected very will with our student. She was prepared, knowledgeable and up to speed on the topics that were being covered in the class. Highly recommended.
