I graduated from UCLA with a double major in psychology and history. In addition to my extensive world travels, I spent 27 months volunteering for the U.S. Peace Corps in the remote Pacific islands of Micronesia. As a teacher and community developer I was instrumental in establishing a successful educational system in the underdeveloped island villages. My experiences taught me how to be creative in my teaching methods and remain open minded to various learning styles.
I have more than 10 years of tutoring experience in a wide variety of subjects and have been a classroom teacher for 2 years. While I enjoy all academic subjects, my concentration and expertise is primarily in the Social Sciences and English. I feel that the most important element for a student's success is passion for what they are learning. My teaching approach emphasizes creating relevant and exciting activities to help my students genuinely care about their education. Relating with my students on a personal level and catering my teaching to their individual needs is critical for positive interactions and positive results.
Outside of the classroom I enjoy playing all types of sports and adventuring in the great outdoors. My future goals include pursuing a PhD in Social Psychology with the plan of becoming a university professor.
