...build a local tutoring service with a friend. Even though that tutoring service is no longer operational, I continued to tutor students throughout my time at Columbia.

I like to incorporate a diverse group to learning modes including written work, active discussion, real...

...learn how to infer tone and meaning using limited information. These skills are valuable and likely what you will retain throughout your life. This is why I care about helping people think about problems not just solve them. I care about showing them the paths to solving problems or writing essays so that they can walk them themselves rather than rummaging around in their memories for disconnected facts and formulas. I do not just want...

...my time tutoring has been with student who are looking to improve their SAT ACT and SSAT scores but I have also worked with a variety of AP tests.

...am most passionate about teaching all levels of math, physics, and chemistry. I am a very curious and passionate learner, and I am eager to foster that same drive in students. I approach teaching by answering questions and explaining concepts but encouraging the student to put those concepts into practice themselves. Instead of simply showing students how to do a problem, I always try to explain the why behind the concept as well.

...maybe even find fun in doing it. I like to help students build a solid toolset of the skills they need to feel ready to approach any problem, whether it's reading or test-taking. My favorite subject to tutor in is Math! I'm passionate about getting girls (and everyone) involved in STEM, and believe that everyone can be a "math person" with a little dedication. In my free time, I love painting, hiking, baking, and hanging...

I know that what works for you may be different than what works for other students, and your goals might be different than what is expected from you at school. We'll work together to develop goals and find a way for you...

...a variety of grade levels and subject matters. Although I am comfortable with most subjects, I feel most passionate about English, Literature, and History. I believe in a student driven approach to teaching that adapts and adjusts to different learning styles and personal traits in order to best serve my student's needs.

...school students like I treat adults, and work with them to take ownership of their learning so they can continue to build the muscles of self-advocacy and leadership. Because I work so carefully with my students on-one-on, I call myself a teacher-tutor-coach. With me, students learn reading skills, writing for different audiences, researching and writing master's theses or dissertations, and presenting information in a clear and confident way. I have also prepared students for the...

...so, professionally for the past 4, so I have lots of experience. I primarily tutor Mathematics, Physics, and Political Science; I'd be happy to help you/your child better understand the concepts behind their problems and achieve better results. My tutoring style differs depending on the subject I'm tutoring. For Mathematics based subjects, I tend to take a graphical approach; focusing on addressing weak-points in understanding by presenting the material in a different, more intuitive and...

...Outstanding Graduate from my cohort. I have experience instructing both in person and via online platforms, such as Zoom. Last year I taught 6th grade honors English and 8th grade English for a school in my local district. During my student teaching (which occurred during the height of the pandemic) I taught entirely virtually and learned how to form meaningful relationships with students even through a computer screen. In addition, I found ways to utilize...
