Certified Tutor

The phrase "Seeing the end from the beginning" reflects my tutoring philosophy. I believe in identifying each student's potential and guiding them toward their goals with personalized strategies. My passion lies in helping students build confidence and realize their abilities, emphasizing education as a transformative process that nurtures individuals academically and personally.
With extensive experience teaching students across various age groups and academic levels, I adapt my methods to accommodate diverse learning styles. My academic background includes a degree in Math Adolescent Education from Binghamton University. This foundation enables me to specialize in math tutoring, with Algebra being particularly rewarding due to its ability to foster critical thinking and creativity.
My teaching philosophy centers on creating engaging, supportive environments where students feel encouraged to explore, ask questions, and connect their learning to real-world applications. I focus on adaptability, using interactive methods and relatable examples to make lessons meaningful and impactful. Recognizing each student's unique gifts, I strive to nurture their talents while ensuring they master essential skills. As it is written, "as each has received a gift, use it to serve one another," I view it as my responsibility to help students excel both academically and as individuals.
Beyond academia, I enjoy exploring historical cultures and nations through books and other media, videogames, and anime, which help inspire fresh perspectives I bring to my teaching. By fostering curiosity, resilience, and a love for learning, my goal is to empower students to achieve success in their studies and provide meaningful contributions to the world.

Hobbies

I am deeply interested in world history, geography, geology, linguistics, and mathematics, often exploring these fields through reading and research. My hobbies include engaging with video games and fantasy stories, which inspire my interest in writing stories set in both real and fictionalized historical eras. Additionally, I enjoy superheroes like Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, and aspire to illustrate my own stories in a comic book style. Drawing serves as a creative outlet that complements my storytelling ambitions. Beyond creative pursuits, I find fulfillment in interacting with others and helping them grow holistically—emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. My goal is to encourage people to reach their full potential while fostering meaningful connections. These interests and hobbies not only enrich my life but also shape my perspective, allowing me to bring creativity and empathy into everything I do.
