...since I was young, I discovered a passion to solve puzzles, especially those involving mathematical thought. As I became older, my school created a special program for me to exponentiate my excellence in math, where I was able to independently study math subjects and dive deep into concepts not covered in the standard curricula. These study sessions eventually became AP Calculus and SAT Math preparation, to which I dedicated tens if not hundreds of hours...

Let's learn together!

I tutored for two years in High...

...be an ESL student in Biology or a student from Boston studying English, and I am excited to return to this work during my upcoming senior year. Working with so many different students has taught me a lot about tutoring, including valuable lessons about different learning styles and communication. My approach to tutoring is typically to begin with a discussion with the students about what they feel their strengths and weaknesses are, and their past...

...can be challenging, I for one had the hardest time growing up, in an environment that didn't suit my needs. I was lucky to have met some great teachers who motivated me along the way.

...and unique approaches to problem-solving to better improve their comprehension of a subject. For instance, while I was substituting at the Loomis Chaffee School, I made it a policy to find at least three different ways of explaining a new concept to my classes, and I kept long office hours and provided my email in order to enable my students to approach me with questions whenever they had time. I often met with students one-on-one,...

...but I'm especially fond of algebra and physics because they teach logical problem-solving and quantitative reasoning skills that students carry with them for life. My teaching philosophy centers on meeting each student where they are. I start by diagnosing gaps in understanding, then tailor explanations and practice problems to build deep conceptual insight. I encourage questions, I break complex ideas into manageable steps, and I consistently reinforce progress with positive feedback and clear, achievable goals.
