...into a Master's program at NYU in Religious Studies. As a teaching assistant, I had the opportunity to talk to students about their papers and exams, and I discovered that I had a knack for getting people to relax and get into a subject, possibly because I love to tell corny jokes.

...potential to learn, develop and create. As an English tutor, I believe it is my role to support the academic development of students and help them become effective communicators.
