About Me

Hello! I am currently pursuing an undergraduate dual major in English Writing (Poetry) and Linguistics at the University of Pittsburgh. I have tutored students of all ages through many programs over the past four years. I believe that in order to learn successfully, one has to be willing to challenge the status quo. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, hiking, practicing various musical instruments, and "nerding out" with some retro videogames.

Q&A with John

I believe that two-way communication is the best way to teach. As a long-time tutor, I've encountered most of my success when the student did not hesitate to ask questions or have me explain complicated material again. In building this type of relationship, there comes a sense of trust that promotes a healthier learning environment, oftentimes leading to more success for both parties.
