...personable through sports. My academics in high school never suffered while I kept such a demanding schedule. I had honors and advanced placement courses all throughout high school and I finished in the top 7% of my graduating high school class.

...and great interest. It was then that I knew I wanted to be a teacher, to continue meeting students who are eager to learn and understand the great importance of education as a tool for both success and happiness. In college, I had the opportunity to live on that same Tanzanian campus and teach English to the students there. I fell in love with the energy of the classroom and I thrived on the challenges...

...at both middle and high school levels. During my undergrad, I worked at a high school with many disadvantaged students coming from a wide range of backgrounds.

In both cases, we develop personalized plans to improve in the way...

...all your future essays in a way that makes sense to you. I like to begin by gauging how the student currently approaches writing, understanding what works well and what proves difficult before delving into tutoring. Instead of nitpicking minute details, I aim to help students recognize what works within their writing in order for them to develop editing skills with my guidance. I have completed my own senior research paper on Indigenous dance as...

I believe an instructor is supposed to inspire a passion for learning. Through my teachings, I impart to students that learning is less about natural talent and more about hard work and dedication. My lessons are dialogues, I have a conversation with the student to pinpoint their exact academic needs, and make not only show help them where they're having trouble, but also give them the tools to do so on their own.

...I went through it myself! Proper tutoring can help a student gain not only improved skills in the classroom but a better sense of their own preferred learning methods. Whether it is with real-life examples or countless practice problems (or both!), I am willing to spend as much time as needed with my students to ensure they reach their full potential during our sessions. While I am not tutoring, I spend my free time playing...

...worked on since I started medical school in 2007 up until now. Above all, I loved helping others achieve the same goal by teaching, and I would like to continue helping students overcome their weak subjects and also master the subjects they are already comfortable learning. The key to success is repetition of what has already been taught. I believe that we can become whomever we want to if we put enough hard work. Overall...

I believe that with a Growth Mindset anyone can learn anything. Acquisition of skills and knowledge is a result of hard work and dedication not innate talent. Challenges, mistakes and problem solving through them are how we "get good" at a skill.
