Welcome WikiEducators,
My name is Gladys Gahona. Born in Mérida, Yucatán, México. I live in Cancun, México since 1984. I am a private teacher on Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.
In 1981 I graduated in Chemical Engineering from Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán. In 2002 I postgraduated in Technology Management from Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán. At college I had the opportunity to be assitant of several academic researchers. I learned lots from them on topics like collaborating projects with Universities from other countries.
Due to economic necessity, started teaching math at a secondary school. Since then I got hooked on teaching. The knowledge I've achieved on teaching has being all by myself. I've been working hard.
I love working with all kind of people who needs counseling on MFQ (Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry).
I tutor generally young people, secondary level & early tertiary level. Helping them with their homeworks, or preparing them for examinations. There is a special group I love to work with, adult people. They are confident and enthusiastic learners, they always give the best of them. They already know the value of time.
