I am originally from a small town in upstate New York. I attended Port Jervis High School, where I received the honor of being named valedictorian and discovered just how much I value education. I moved to New York City for college when I attended Fordham University at Rose Hill in the Bronx. I pursued a double major in English and French Language and Literature, as well as a double minor in Comparative Literature and Psychology. I was blessed with the opportunity to follow my passions through study abroad programs in both London and Paris. I absolutely love to travel and certainly miss my exciting European adventures! While home in the Bronx, my most meaningful volunteer experiences were working in a Hunts Point preschool. Through my work with young children and early literacy, I developed a love for teaching. I expanded my volunteer work in education with homework help for high school students and English tutoring for college freshmen. Upon graduation from Fordham, I joined the New York City Teaching Fellowship program and began my journey to teacher certification in Special Education and English, grades 7-12. I currently work as a 10th and 11th grade teacher at a school in Queens, where I teach French, English, and U.S. History. Studying and teaching French, I learned about the frustration students feel when struggling to understand something that might literally or figuratively seem to be in another language. I carry this understanding, lots of patience, and a passion for language into my tutoring sessions. Outside of school, I love to read, have movie nights, see as many Broadway shows as possible, and travel all over NYC and NYS seeing my lovely family and friends.

I am a student on leave from Princeton University's School of Public and International Affairs, looking to study immigration and urban policy specifically. Languages are another passion of mine, I am currently studying Arabic and Spanish, but am fluent in French and Romanian as well. Working for Concordia Language Villages, as a counsellor at a French Immersion Camp, has taught me how to effectively teach French using a wide variety of methods and activities. Supporting students in creative ways was key to that job, but working as a writing coach also gave me the experience necessary to guide serious students through complex writing projects. Though my professional interests tend towards the humanities, I love to unscramble equations and help students work through Algebra and Calculus subjects as well. Teaching has always been a passion of mine, and helping students succeed in French, Math, and Writing, as well as improving standardized test scores combines my skills and interests remarkable well. Outside of academics, I love to hike and play Ultimate Frisbee.

I am an energetic, creative, and ambitious learner who has developed a mature and responsible approach to any task I undertake. I approach my students with kindness and seek to understand their current level before making a plan to support their needs.

I'm from rural Southern Virginia, having grown up in a low-class family. As the first in my bio-fam to go on to not only college but to now nearly finish a PhD, I feel especially attuned to helping low-class folks gain access to higher education in ways that don't replicate the long-standing history of having systemically blocked them out. Moreover, I am openly queer and am attentive to the ways that educational spaces have been a complicated site for queer students as both havens and hells. Therefore, I love working with all students but especially queer and low-class students in helping them navigate a terrain that was simply not built for them. At base, I'm passionate about helping students get the educational resources they need to succeed while also addressing the historical power involved in their access to that knowledge.My education has taken me from a double Bachelors in French and Spanish Languages and Literatures at Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Va. all the way to the University of Washington-Seattle for a Masters in Comparative Literature and now a PhD in Comparative Literature, Cinema, and Media.In terms of what I teach and tutor, my experience and expertise are varied. I generally teach undergraduates and adult learners; however, I'm interested in working with younger students. While I have taught and still love to teach French and Spanish language at various levels, my specialty is really working with cultural production (literary and filmic) and its relationship to the development of racial capitalism. In other words, I look at how cultural products have been critical sites of both resistance for minoritized folks and tools for those in power. Representation, after all, is so crucial to how one conceives of a group of people, their histories, and their struggles. Perhaps my favorite thing to teach is literary and filmic analysis as I love critically reading, watching, and analyzing narrative works. French and Spanish language are a definite second, because understanding another language helps to see how your own shapes your reality and has also been used to gain power.Apart from my nerdiness in academia, I'm a huge social butterfly and all-around extrovert! I love being social with folks, either out a restaurant, bar, gathering etc. I love a good joke and well-timed, witty punextra points for great roasts. I also enjoy cooking, rpg video games on my PS4, and mainly quality time with those around me.

Hello! I am a graduate in International Studies and French Language, and as an accomplished writer, researcher, and communicator, I look forward to sharing my love of language and the written word with you. I have experience teaching French that ranges from the primary-school to the University level, and would be more than happy to accept students of any age or skill level. I have studied in France, and my intimacy with both the language and the culture can certainly help to enrich and immerse students. I am also qualified to help with standardized test prep, focusing on practice in the reading, writing, and verbal sections. I believe language, whether foreign or our first, is the most important tool we have. Therefore, learning and progressing should be an important, yet enjoyable process. I look forward to working and growing together as learners.

Think Newton skipped learning grade school Math or Earth Science and went straight to laying down the groundwork for Physics and Calculus? Not quite.

I'm here to help you achieve beyond your perceived limits.

As a non-native speaker of Spanish and French, I recognize the immensely positive impact learning foreign languages can have on one's life. However, learning foreign languages is a challenging, long term process that requires dedication. That dedication is not just the responsibility of the student, but of language teachers as well. As a teacher I am committed to making connections with students in a fun, positive way that fosters not just an appreciation for the language but a solid understanding of language fundamentals, such as grammar. I truly teaching and feel there is no obstacle to learning that is insurmountable. Fun is also a critical part of the process, and I always do my very best to make sure my students are having the best time possible while strengthening their language skills.
