...the pre-med curriculum. I have a great deal of experience (about 3-4 years) in tutoring students of various ages - whether it be test prep, course work (economics, biology, various math levels), etc. I believe in a three pronged approach to helping students - clarity, comprehension, and persistence. It is my hope that I can encourage students to seek their full potential. When not tutoring, I enjoy playing basketball, listening to music, and cooking.

I am committed to bringing out the best in my students and making sure that they realize their potential in life. "I cannot figure it out" is never an excuse. I believe when there is a will, there is always a way. Inspiring my students to become lifelong learners and social change agents is a passion I hold dearly.

I have known since I was in high school that teaching and helping others learn was something that I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Sharing my passion for learning is just completely fulfilling and I can't think of any other job more rewarding. It's my goal to help everyone who comes to me understand what they are having trouble with, and to make them more confident with their learning.

I am a soon to be graduate of University of Maryland. I am receiving a Bachelors in Computer Engineering. One thing I have noticed in my journey is that its important to have somewhere you can turn when you have questions.
