Hi! I am currently a senior at Vanderbilt University studying pre-medicine and economics and minoring in business. My goal is to aid students in the best possible way by providing successful strategies I used to perform well on standardized tests and adapting them to the needs of the student. I have even helped students pass classes in less comfortable areas such as Environmental Science using these strategies.

As a teacher, my goal is to figure out the best way that each student retains information and from there become a facilitator of learning. It is much easier for people to improve when they are in the driver's seat, you just have to find the best vehicle.

I'm currently a senior at Vanderbilt double majoring in history and business, while also preparing for the LSAT exam.

I am a 12 year teacher who has transitioned into the hospitality industry. The part of teaching I miss is when a student realizes he or she truly comprehends the concept. Tutoring will allow me to continue to help change the lives of individuals on a one on one basis.

...in education. I left teaching due to the over politization of the profession. Students aren't in a one-to-one environment getting the attention they need to feel as successful as possible.
