I have always been passionate about helping others, whether through volunteering, working as an EMT, or coaching youth lacrosse. Tutoring, however, is one of my favorite outlets to help others because it is a journey that involves my students and I to work together to achieve their learning goals. I started tutoring in undergrad at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, where I graduated with a B.A. in Biochemistry. At Wheaton, I developed the philosophy that learning should be fun. In my tutoring sessions I like to take time to get to know the student before we jump into the material. Even as we work through the session, it is not uncommon to joke around and laugh. Currently I am tutoring Biology and Life Sciences which are my favorite subjects because they can be observed in everyday life! After receiving my MBA in Healthcare, I have had more time to spend on hobbies. In my newly acquired spare time, I enjoy being active outdoors, reading fiction, playing sports, and training for a triathlon.

Q&A with Amy

My teaching philosophy is that learning should be fun. As we work through the session, it is not uncommon to joke around and laugh. As a teacher, I believe in breaking down the material into smaller pieces until it's easier for the student to understand. We will also approach the material from a variety of viewpoints, whether it be through reading, pictures, or discussion.
