About Me

I am a graduate of Dartmouth College. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Engineering Sciences and Studio Art, focusing on design and sculpture. During college I worked as a teaching assistant and after graduating, I worked as an educator for an environmental non-profit teaching middle and high school students hands on, experiential marine science lessons. I went to high school here in Tucson at Catalina Foothills and I studied abroad in Vancouver Island, Canada for two years, completing the I.B. diploma. My philosophy of education is focused on sharing my own passion for a subject and developing a similar appreciation in the students that I work with. I believe that this passion is essential for effective learning to happen, namely learning should never be rote memorization that fades away after an exam but something that persists and ultimately grows. I always have fun tutoring: I try my best to make it enjoyable, be it outlining an essay, understanding the critical content of a passage or preparing for Standardized Tests. I am flexible, patient and can adapt myself to any learning needs a student has. My interests are reading literature (as well as some sci fi), travel and getting up with the sun to go hiking or to go for a long bike ride in the beautiful desert.
