...principles and hard work. I have the perspective of a student trying to understand, not a teacher trying to preach. I love working with people from the ground up; we start at the comfort zone and work our way to improvement. I know I don't know everything, so I'm excited to learn as well!...

...people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught.

I look forward to meeting and getting to know you and helping you through your studies to get you to your academic goals!... Overall, good teaching consists of leaving students with more knowledge, more insight, and more tools to take on their future goals. Three main...

...campuses. I also worked as a tutor in a university writing center, serving students across all disciplines. Creative writing is my favorite subject to teach.

As a kid, I worked hard in school and had some teachers who helped me to love learning. As a tutor, I will provide quality instruction that supports student learning and encourages student success. I would love to see how your child grows to love learning too!

...my academic career, I believed that I was bad at math and science because I excelled in writing and literature. One day, my AP Calculus teacher explained a complicated mathematical concept in terms that my literary side understood. She taught me that all subjects are understandable when they relate to information you already have. I...
