...a student organization that tutored students at a local K-8 school who were struggling with reading and writing. My student was thirteen years old, and most of the resources for his reading level were aimed at students much younger. In order to keep him engaged, I had to get creative. We would practice reading comprehension using the sports section of the newspaper, and did short creative writing exercises. I learned a lot about how to...

I find it extremely gratifying when my students realize that a so-called "dead" language can actually be relevant to their lives! When tutoring Latin, I like to focus on using various strategies to help students "read with expectations, " meaning that students engage in linear reading (reading left-to-right, without skipping around), and approach texts with a notion of what makes a sentence complete. More generally,...

I seek to help my students make connections between new material and things that are familiar to them, breaking down higher concepts with accessible examples that can help foster creativity. I care deeply about my students and their success, and I look forward to working with you!... I believe that every subject we learn has relevance and connections to the world around us. I work to achieve "aha!" moments with students by tackling complex topics through the lens of what is already familiar, so that my students can see the importance of what they learn and remember the connections they made.
