I am a dedicated tutor with a passion for helping students unlock their full potential. Witnessing the transformative power of education and seeing students thrive academically and personally fuels my drive to make a positive impact. Throughout my journey as a tutor, I have had the privilege of working with students from diverse backgrounds and age groups. I have tutored children of immigrants while working for Croix Rouge in Paris, helped high school and college students to improve their Calculus skills as a tutor at Columbia University, and provided free financial literacy lessons in my home country, Moldova. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges students face and honed my ability to tailor my teaching approach to meet their individual needs. I am dual BA student at Columbia University in the city of New York and SciencesPo in Paris, studying Law, Economics and Mathematics. My educational background has equipped me with critical thinking skills and a strong foundation in English, History, Law, Economics, and Mathematics. I find great joy in helping students navigate complex texts, develop analytical thinking, and express their ideas eloquently. Beyond academia, I have a passion for reading Russian literature and French Absurdism. I also like playing football and I am a big fan of escape rooms.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Economics from St. Francis Xavier University, and I have over four years of tutoring experience across a diverse age range, from kindergarteners to adults. My expertise includes teaching English as a Second Language (ESL), French as a Second Language (FSL), and various subjects such as math and literacy. I believe that effective tutoring is dynamic and tailored to each student's unique needs, fostering a supportive environment where learning is both enjoyable and productive. My approach incorporates interactive materials and games, particularly for younger students, while maintaining a structured and rigorous methodology for older learners. I am passionate about empowering students to achieve tangible progress, as I understand the challenges of language acquisition and the importance of strong communication skills in all areas of life. Additionally, my experience working with students with learning disabilities has reinforced my commitment to adapting my teaching strategies to ensure every learner can succeed.

I'm a recent graduate of Northwestern University, a native New Yorker, and a recent addition to Varsity Tutors. I grew up in Westchester County, where I volunteered as an assistant creative writing teacher in high school. After high school, I moved to Evanston, Illinois for school. I studied a wide variety of subjects in college: from Medieval Literature to Buddhist Psychology. I moved back to New York after graduating to pursue a career in the arts. I currently work as a reader for the literary director of an Off-Broadway theatre company.

I am a passionate educator who provides a nurturing and supportive learning environment, allowing students to learn at their own pace and feeling empowered to ask questions along the way. I believe no two people learn the same, so customize my teaching approach to each individual and what works best with them. I have over two years of experience providing tutoring support in Elementary Mathematics and Algebra, French, and standardized tests, such as the GED and SAT. Additionally, I have over twelve years of professional experience providing trainings on Computer Literacy and Microsoft programs, including SharePoint. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics with a minor in French and a Masters in International Public Policy. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading and exploring new cultures, which enriches my approach to teaching and allows me to connect with students on a personal level.

I have a Master's in Public Health and Bachelor's in Global Studies (with minors in French and Health) both from the University of Virginia. I was a very involved student on and off campus and completed both my undergraduate and graduate degrees in 4 years, so I learned excellent time management and study practices. I'm originally from the Chicago suburbs but travel a lot for work and have lived all over the world, and love being able to communicate in the native language of places I travel. I speak both French and Nepali at an advanced level! Most of my previous tutoring experience comes from my time serving in the Peace Corps, where I worked with students of all ages and supported their learning in and outside the classroom on a variety of subjects. My tutoring style is very personalized to the student I am working with; I love to start by identifying the student's broader goals and how excelling at the subject at hand will help them achieve their goals, then breaking down the steps to mastery of the subject into bite-size achievements.

I am a Board Certified Cognitive Specialist with an Advanced Certification in Child & Youth Mental Health. My degrees include a BS in Healthcare Administration and Psychology, and an AS degree in Architectural Technology. I am also completely my Masters in Instructional design, specifically related to accessibility for online learning. As an avid learner and adventurer, I love sharing my knowledge with children, teens and adults alike. Teaching, to me, is about learning how my student learns, understanding their strengths and challenges, and adapting my skills for their best outcomes, in a way that is both fun and comprehensive. I have worked in several countries and three continents teaching English as a second language. I am fluent in French through study and immersion in France, and I love sharing the language and culture with my students, whether for school or because they want to travel. I am certified as an ESL (English as Second Language) teacher and Enseignant de franais langue trangre (FLE) to teach French as a foreign language. I have developed an evidence-based program that is engaging and interactive with which I have successfully taught several teens and adults conversational French, grammar and translation. I volunteer as an advocate for individuals with neurodiverse challenges and mental health needs, and in my spare time I enjoy art, cooking, photography, and walking.

My goal is to ensure every student I tutor understands math and builds the confidence to bring about fundamental changes about how they solve problems, even if they haven't seen it before.

I am a life long learner and passionate educator. I have a Music Education degree from McGill University in Montreal (yes, it is definitely colder in Canada!). My primary instruments are the trumpet and piano, however I have taken classes on every instrument. I incorporate music theory and aural skills into all music instruction. I am particularly passionate about Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and bring that to the forefront of all of my teaching. During my 5 years at McGill University I took many broad range education courses in addition to the music classes. I am also passionate about the French language, as I lived in Quebec for 5 years. I thoroughly enjoy mathematics and do math problems for fun! I have a passion for writing, including short stories, poetry, and research papers putting my english education to use. I produce music professionally and hope to someday perform as a touring DJ, while also providing a space for students to learn about music production online. I'm in the process of developing an e-learning academy for music producers that will provide quality, accessible, and affordable education for all future popstars and producers.

I firmly believe that every student has the ability to achieve greatness. Any advice, word of encouragement, or assistance I can provide towards the student maximizing his/her potential makes the investment worthwhile. I was fortunate to get help along the way; why not turn around and do the same for others?!

Learning is invigorating! Increasing our knowledge increases our understanding of the world and our satisfaction with life. We should take every opportunity to learn, be passionate about what we learn, and allow it to be fun and exciting.
