...undergraduate and graduate levels, and I have served my community as a writing tutor for students at different stages. For example, I worked with many first-year students as they tackled their core courses. Additionally, I helped graduate students write their term papers by helping them shape their ideas into coherent narratives. However, I am proudest to have supported students in their pursuit of graduate education. Sometimes this meant helping with admissions essays and personal statements,...

...Shakespeare's "The Winter's Tale" in the Fall of my senior year. I tutor a very broad range of subjects, but my preferences lie with the liberal arts (English, writing, reading, history, etc.). That said, I also enjoy the sensation of testing myself that I experience when doing math problems: I find satisfaction in solving a problem. That applies to standardized tests, as well, which have the added bonus of being a race against time. In...

...Air and Space Museum in DC. My longest museum stint, though, was at the Maryland Science Center in Baltimore MD - almost eight years as an educator there, working in nearly every exhibit they have.

As part of FYRE's leadership, I mentored another ten students directly...

...is easily my favorite because it explains how everything works and is so applicable to the world around us. Not everyone loves science, but I have found that once a student gains the skills and confidence they need, science becomes a fascinating subject that stimulates their curiosity and excitement.

...tutor for a college physics course at Boston University, I had to communicate with students at different levels, backgrounds, and different learning styles. This required patience when listening to my students' questions and concerns, even with some of them being non-native English speakers with difficulty articulating their questions about quantum physics and Newton's laws. Seeing their reactions when a previously foreign concept became clear was one of the most rewarding experiences I have had in...
