I have a B.A. in Education and I am currently working on my Masters in Teaching degree back at Brown, with a focus on secondary social studies/history. In between, I taught 8th grade American Studies full-time at a private school in California, tutoring students on the side in both writing and math. I also ran an afterschool support program for students with learning differences who needed help with planning, organization, and structuring their work time. Throughout my undergraduate career, I worked with students from age six to age eighteen, usually with a focus on reading and writing, but with occasional forays into social studies, science, and Taekwondo. My favorite subjects to tutor are middle and high school writing and math through Algebra I. I also tutor in the elementary grades, in Spanish, and in history. I am willing to meet each student where they are and go from there. I encourage students to embrace a growth mindset, believing that they are capable of great success with hard work and determination. I am extremely patient and willing to try multiple avenues to reach your student in the most effective way. I have loved working with kids since I was one myself--I've babysat since I was eleven, and I've been "tutoring" my younger brother and sister and my friends since I was in middle school. Working with students one-on-one is something I missed as a teacher last year, and the reason why I chose to take on tutoring in addition to my teaching responsibilities. There is nothing better than seeing the pride and confidence of a student grow along with their academic skills.
