Iris: Costa Mesa tutor

Certified Tutor

As the eldest sibling in my family, I naturally grew into the role of helping my younger sister and her friends with their homework. Before long, my parents suggested that since I was already helping her, why not assist some of their friends as well? And just like that, my teaching journey began. As a kid, I went from tutoring family friends to, later in high school, volunteering to tutor kids with disabilities in math.

Now, in college, I tutor several children ranging from elementary to early high school in subjects like English, math, science, and social studies. Through these experiences, I've discovered a profound joy in witnessing the expressions of understanding on their faces when a challenging problem finally makes sense. Their growth and learning fill me with a pride that surpasses even my academic achievements.

I've come to realize that teaching is more than just sharing knowledgeit's about nurturing confidence and curiosity in others. My goal is to help as many kids as possible, teaching them not just concepts but also how to believe in their abilities and embrace growth.
