...learn as individuals. As an undergraduate and in graduate school, my best experiences have been those where respect was shown to me as a student. From that respect, my confidence was allowed to grow and self respect for my own growing abilities flourished as well.

Both in and out of the pool, I believe that a good lesson is one where the student is doing the thinking. I teach...

In many ways I am still a student, always trying to grow as a person and in my profession.

After Skidmore I moved to London where I earned my Master of Arts in art history at the Courtauld Institute of Art. Currently I am pursuing a doctoral degree at Boston University,...

I care about helping students navigate standardized tests, sharpen their writing skills, and understand how to approach any question or prompt. I enjoy mentoring students, and I find tutoring to be a genuinely fun and meaningful experience....
