I am a current graduate student at Columbia University working towards a Master of Science in Public Health and received my undergraduate degree in Anthropology from Reed College in Portland, Oregon. After graduating from Reed, I earned my Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA) and spent two years teaching English to adult and young learners in Colombia. I have experience tutoring one on one as well as teaching courses of up to 40 students. As a tutor, I prioritize understanding individual student's learning styles. While I offer structure and approaches that have helped me and others I know along the way, I understand that there are multiple ways to take in the same information. I believe that everyone is capable of learning just about anything given the right support and tools. I am originally from St. Paul, MN and enjoy playing Rugby, reading (for fun), and debating big issues.
