I am a graduate of Princeton University, where I received my B.A. in Classics with a focus on Roman History and a minor in Environmental Studies. Since graduation, I have worked as a teacher in Lawrence MA, where I help design curriculum for social studies and science and teach reading, math, social studies, and science to kindergarten through first grade students. I have also tutored adults working towards their GED, led ESL conversation classes, and worked with high school age students. I have experience tutoring a broad range of subjects and working with a wide variety of ages. Whether it’s learning how to be a better test-taker or honing an essay on Shakespeare, my favorite thing about tutoring is seeing the great progress my students make. Although my college focus was on history and literature, I also love to tutor math, which was my favorite subject all through middle school and high school. Outside of academics, I love playing field hockey, hiking, traveling, and spending time with my family and two corgis.

I am a very experienced high school and middle school teacher/tutor, as I have been tutoring or teaching in some capacity since August of 2010.
