Leya: Clarkstown tutor
Certified Tutor
Helping others learn has always been something I've loved, but it truly clicked for me when I was working with a student who struggled with math. When they finally understood the concept I was teaching, the look of happiness, excitement, and clarity on their face was unforgettable and that moment sparked a passion in me for tutoring.
Since then, I've been committed to helping students unlock their potential. One of my biggest strengths as a tutor is adaptability. I understand that every student learns differently, some need visuals, others connect best through imagination or hands-on examples. I take the time to figure out what works best for each learner and tailor my approach to match.
My goal is to help at least 50 students reach their academic goals and feel confident in their abilities. Whether a student is struggling or just wants to get ahead, I'm here to support them with patience, creativity, and personalized guidance.

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading, especially books about psychology and education. I also like creative hobbies like drawing and writing, which help me bring fresh ideas into my lessons. In my free time, I love watching documentaries or solving puzzles; it’s fun and keeps my brain active! I believe having different interests helps me connect better with students who have a variety of passions themselves.
