Certified Tutor

I am currently finishing my dual major in Economics and Political Science at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I discovered my love for tutoring when I began tutoring Economics for the Comprehensive Studies Program (CSP) at the University. Economics is still my favorite subject to tutor because I get to see students' eyes light up as they realize how the subject can be used to explain society around them. I now also tutor a variety of high school level classes and find equal joy helping students along the same academic journey I set off on years ago.

My teaching philosophy is that students learn best when the tutor acts as a guide rather than an additional teacher by allowing the student to consider the idea on their own, and stepping in when the student becomes stumped. When consulting a tutor, a student should consider the tutor as a means of making their study time more effective.
