Explaining concepts in a way that actually makes sense that's what I've always loved doing. Whether I was leading science activities for younger students or helping classmates through tricky programming assignments, I found that learning clicked when I could connect abstract ideas to everyday logic. That's the approach I bring to every tutoring session: clear, patient, and adapted to how each student thinks.
As a computer science student, I've built educational games, simulations, and full systems experiences that taught me the importance of breaking down complex problems and thinking step by step. But what's stuck with me even more is the power of encouragement. I used to hesitate asking questions myself, so I know how valuable it is to have someone who doesn't make you feel small for not "getting it" right away.
Whether I'm tutoring middle school math or high school physics, I focus on building a foundation that students can rely on not just to pass tests, but to feel more confident and capable in the long run. My goal isn't just to help students find the right answer, but to help them understand why it's right and how to approach the next one on their own.

Away from textbooks, I like to slow things down with embroidery—there’s something calming about turning loose thread into tiny flowers. A short at-home workout or a long, aimless walk keeps the energy up. And whenever I can, I’m taste-testing new recipes or tracking down the next great snack spot.
