I graduated with honors from UC Berkeley's English program. While in college, I worked as a tutor, designing lesson plans and teaching accelerated classes for elementary to high schoolers within a day-time tutoring program. This included standardized test prep as well. My biggest priority as a tutor is helping you find the confidence and belief in your own ability. This, I've found, has the biggest impact on a student's performance.

...and Literature. Thanks to this decision I have had the most incredibly enriching experiences, including a semester abroad in France.

Here is a short anecdote, which I usually use tell people to sum up my way of thinking.

My most recent job was at a summer camp, so even outside of my tutoring I...

...horseback pack trips through the mountains.  I would start with kids who often had no horse experience and throughout the week I taught them everything from riding skills and horse care to proper packing and wilderness camping procedures.  Seeing those kids packing their packhorses in half the time and confidently racing their horses around barrels by the last day—the same kids who had been fumbling to lift their saddles on the first day—was the most...

As an educator and avid traveler, my journey has been profoundly shaped by my experiences in diverse cultures and environments.
