...I participated in MASA Israel Corps, an English-teaching and volunteering program in northern Israel. For eight months I taught and tutored English at the high school in Kiryat Shmona, preparing 10th-12th graders for their final 'Bagrut' examinations.

Participating in this past program pushed me to realize how I truly love teaching and wish to pursue...

...in my younger years. If not for the amazing support I had from my teachers, I would not be here today. I am currently working on my Master's in Classics and I could not have chosen a better path. Because of my background, I understand the difficulties of learning and teaching, and there really is nothing that I would rather do than tutor. I live and breathe my passion for Classics and languages.... Teaching is a two-way street. A student needs to be motivated in order to learn and a teacher needs to love the subject in order to teach.

My goal as a tutor is not only to help my students understand concepts but meaningfully engage with them so it's clear not only why we study certain disciplines, but why they matter--and hopefully have some fun in the process, too! When I'm not tutoring or working on my own writing, I love...

...that I did not want to be a clinical psychologist. I feel teaching will be a more fulfilling career for me; I am planning to be a high school/middle school math teacher. During high school, I tutored Latin and have tutored Math during high school and college. The best tutors tailor their lessons to the learning styles of their students. I enjoy finding accessible and creative approaches to simplify complex concepts for my students. My...

...as well. I have been tutoring since I was in graduate school for students of all levels and academic abilities. My first academic love is Latin and the Classics- I really enjoy helping others develop their skills with the language and gain an appreciation for the culture and history of Rome.
