Zakia: Oak Park tutor
Certified Tutor
I am passionate about tutoring because I believe in the transformative power of education. Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University, I have over 3 years of experience in tutoring mathematics, including Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus. My teaching philosophy centers on understanding each student's unique learning style and tailoring my lessons to meet their needs. I strive to create a supportive and engaging environment where students can build confidence and problem-solving skills. My experiences include teaching at after school centers, displaced children in refugee camps and volunteering to teach English as a second language, which have deepened my empathy and adaptability as an educator. I look forward to helping students unlock their potential and achieve academic success.

I’m an avid explorer at heart—whether I’m pedaling down a winding bike trail or pitching a tent under the stars, I thrive on fresh experiences. On quieter days, you’ll find me curled up with a good book or honing my crochet skills, stitch by stitch. I’m equally passionate about stories on screen—binge-reading movie recommendations just as eagerly as I watch spirited debates that challenge my viewpoints. Writing lets me weave together ideas from all these pursuits, and I’m always planning my next journey to someplace new. Each hobby feeds my curiosity and keeps me inspired to learn, create, and discover.
