About Me

Education has been a passion of mine since I was in high school. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Psychology in 2013 from Chaminade University of Honolulu. Since graduation, I have been working a few part-time jobs while going to school to earn my Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology. One of my current part-time jobs is Substitute Teaching in the Leeward District of O'ahu. I enjoy teaching every time I step into a classroom and I hope to continue educating students through Varsity Tutors. It's one of the most satisfying feelings for me to see a student truly understand something new and I love to be part of that educational process. Besides my interests in education, my hobbies include playing the drums and playing basketball. I have played basketball for most of my life and I still love the sport. As for drums, I own my own drum kit as well as a cajon drum and a bongo drum. I love to listen and play music with my friends whenever I get the chance. As a tutor, I try to figure out what methods work best for each student I work with. I fully understand that teaching is not a "one size fits all" sort of thing and everyone learns in different ways. My objective is to find out what works best for the student first, and then go from there. I like to make learning fun and enjoyable so that students can have a good time while educating themselves.
