I think being bilingual is an incredible skill to have, and I love helping students improve their fluency. I would describe my tutoring philosophy as one...

...Science. I was born and raised in New York City, and have spent my college career finding ways to help students get the education they need. I've interned with the NYC Department of Education, the European Grassroots Anti-Racist Movement in Paris, and political campaigns here at home. I am a strong believer in the idea that a great education can change a child's life, and I plan on making a career of helping make sure...

...business, specifically marketing which I studied at St. Johns University. However, in light of recent events my career focus has shifted from business to diplomacy and world politics.

When I am not in class or working as a nanny in the mornings, I enjoy writing poetry, playing with my kitten, and exploring new neighborhoods around me.

...education. My exposure to challenging coursework and real-world work experiences has equipped me with critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which I use to support and mentor others. In addition to taking place in a classroom, education, in my opinion, should promote curiosity, teamwork, and personal growth.

...last year from SUNY Binghamton. A "creative dissertation" in my case was a poetry collection, a book that was many years in the making. In terms of my experience as a teacher, I've been working in education for ten years. I've worked with middle school students to college students in their fifties. I enjoy helping individuals becoming effective writers, readers, and thinkers. I believe reading and writing can help provide maps to navigate life. These...

...just increase the grade in a subject, but increase knowledge ,understanding, and even interest in the subject.

...the increasingly standardized education system can chafe with independent young minds. Having struggled through middle school with motivation and consistency in and outside of the classroom, I was fortunate to find a teacher in 9th grade who invigorated my love for learning; all by showcasing the opportunities available to me through education that I'd always taken for granted. School is challenging and should be taken seriously, but with a little bit of creativity, it's also...

...Spanish along with many other subjects that I tutor. Furthermore, over the years I have learned that many students who learn Spanish in a classroom setting struggle because they're solely taught technical linguistic lingo; they rarely ever get the opportunity to actually speak it with their classmates in order to comfortably develop a Spanish tongue. This is why I find it important to tutor such concepts in a relatable, less technical, and more creative way....
