As a graduate with a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering from the University of Toronto, I bring over two years of experience in tutoring mathematics, including Advanced Functions, Algebra, and Calculus. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment, emphasizing the fun and utility of mathematics in everyday application. I strive to connect with each student by recognizing their unique needs and adapting my approach, accordingly, often utilizing visualization techniques and encouraging a growth mindset.

My experience as an instructor in the University of Toronto's Engineering Academy has equipped me with the skills to make complex concepts more approachable. I am passionate about helping students develop confidence and enthusiasm for learning, believing that mistakes are valuable opportunities for growth. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring the intersections of math and biology through research, which further enriches my teaching.
