We all get lost sometimes and too many of us have sorely wished for a tenacious tutor at some point in our academic, professional, and personal learning journeys. The following words were revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and serve as a reminder to...

For high school, I went to Thomas Jefferson HS for Science and Technology, where I refined my skills in logical thinking and STEM topics.

...and responsible person guiding them to gain more knowledge. One of my best qualities as a teacher is discerning a student's strengths and helping them harness those qualities to learn. I can only hope to provide that and more to my students! Full time, I work in public policy helping to end homelessness. I attended Johns Hopkins University for undergrad where I obtained my degree in Political Science and Georgetown University for graduate school, where...

I am a biologist with a passion for education, as I believe that education is vital for conservation, progression, and making the right decisions.

...and can tutor anyone at the undergraduate level. Not only have I learned a lot about music, I also become a great writer. Religious Studies is a strange field to most, but my experience was rooted in religious philosophy, which included reading great thinkers from Nietzsche to Kierkegaard, to the great Buddhists like Vasubandhu and Dharmakirti. I not only had to read this dense philosophy, but I had to write about it too. Writing continued...

...because my mom was my math teacher from 6th through 8th grade Algebra 1. She had this saying of "if you can't memorize it, tattoo it all over your body," that we all used to laugh about. Well, a few years ago I got really tired of trying to memorize the digits of Pi so I got a Pi tattoo on my right wrist. I'm not a big believer in making math all about the...

Outside of school, I like to travel around and take adventures in and around the area, exploring museums and parks and cafes. I also enjoy playing the piano, boxing and running, and reading. I like to try new things and see how they go, success or fail;...

My educational philosophy is the tie that binds students to discovery through exposure to ideas, cultures, and concepts, once only thought of as foreign.

I am an experienced tutor specializing in high school and college-age materials, including standardized tests such as the ACT and SAT. I believe that the ultimate goal of teaching is to enable to student to function independently of the tutor. Therefore, I instill in my students not only an understanding of the core subject matter, but also key skills such as critical thinking and logic.

I am a motivated young professional with significant experience working with youth. I am looking to tutor students, especially in Spanish, and to encourage them to love and embrace learning. If you are looking for someone experienced with youth and with tutoring, who loves learning and loves to make learning fun, then I would love to meet you!
