I enjoy learning from others and helping others learn. Learning is always a reciprocal process in my opinion. Hopefully, I can use my experience working in the education system to benefit students through Varsity Tutors.

I will demonstrate positive attitudes, values in all my communications with the student.

...that simply checking the boxes and getting the right answer is not success. What I value far more is not just telling students the answers to their problems, but providing them with the resources and strategies to arrive at the correct answer themselves.

While outside, I usually find myself running (again, in...

...carry forward. My favorite subjects to tutor include English, SAT test preparation, math, and psychology. My approach to tutoring is to meet the student where they're at and go from there. I find that this way we can build a productive tutoring relationship where I can help individualize learning to each person's particular learning style. Outside of academic interests, I enjoy cooking, being with friends and family, traveling the world, and looking as ridiculous as...
