Kumuda

Certified Tutor

I attained a BS in Biology at Arizona State University. My Professional Educators License certifies me to instruct grades 6-12, with additional endorsements in biological, general, and physical science.

Post graduation I joined Teach for America and taught 8th grade science, high school biology, and earth space science in Chicago for two years. For each of these courses I personally designed all curriculum, lesson plans, labs and assessments. Additionally I have instructed a summer school session for Advanced Algebra.

I tutor K-8 all subjects, K-12 English/reading/writing, my favorites being general science, ACT Science, and Biology (honors and AP included). I love that science explains how the world around us worksfrom why the sky is blue, to why we resemble our parents.

I enjoy working with all types of studentswhether they do not particularly enjoy the subject, or are driven from the get go. My teaching style is creative, engaging, and goal oriented. I like to get to know my students and their ambitions, and work with them where they are at to achieve mastery.

Other than science, I am an avid CrossFit athlete, and competed on a regional team. I am also a Level 2 Certified CrossFit Coach and have coached Track and FitClub. I also enjoy skiing, hiking, kayaking and rafting. On the artsy side of things I have been doing chalk pastels, painting, and crafting since I was a child.
