Time Off Employment Denver, Co. June 2014-Feburary 2016
I had to stop working due to my son becoming deathly ill. I have always loved the medical field and helping
others. While looking for employment I decided to do something to keep me on my toes and make sure my skills
are up to par. So I tutor in and off the campus on my own free time until I find a team to work with. I do not get
payment for my services thru Everest College. My students pay me directly for tutoring them. I teach my students
everything in the MA program and ensure they graduate.
