Afternoon Family, My name is Gordon Cummings & I am excited to introduce myself and to hopefully be a helping hand. I live in Santa Monica and am originally from Virginia with a background that I feel would fit very well with the your kids. I have babysit & tutor'ed young minds on and off for 5 years throughout High school & College. I have had many roles helping out watching over kids for friends & family because I find enjoyment in young minds thriving. I am an all around individual whether it is academia, athletics, philosophy, culture, & personal passions for any growing mind to engage. I have graduated from a strong university and played almost all sports competitively in my life, mainly soccer so I am actively able to participate with your kids. I have always loved kids being the youngest of a large family, and never having Read more a chance to mentor my own younger sibling. I am naturally at ease with their demeanor & empathic to their frustrations. I would love to be a tutor and help guide your kids to become awed by all the fascinating things the world has to offer. I am passionate about providing high quality fun caring needs. I understand time management very well & have had plenty of experience getting my hands dirty washing dishes, doing house chores, food prepping, providing customer service, or giving youth group kayak/surf lessons. I have an insured safe vehicle reliable vehicle (Mercedes) with a clean driving record for transportation needs. I am a naturally very easy going & peaceful person that can handle stressful situations with grace. I am looking to be a positive influence and role model to the youth in my own personal endeavors. I would love to be a helpful hand for parents & kids alike. The youth are our future and having a job where I can responsibly interact with them as well as bring ease to the parents lives is a win/win for me. Please feel free to give me a shout with any concerns or questions. Namaste & Thank You
