About Me

I'm Akir! I graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and minor in Political Science from the University of Pittsburgh. I started my collegiate career with the intent to be a nurse as I enjoy helping people, but it didn't take long for me to realize studying the material brought me more joy than trying to cure patients, as sometimes that's an impossible task. It was because of my challenging courses in nursing that I decided to delve deeply into understanding the mind and how we learn. By way of my peers and professors suggestions I began to research different learning styles and concluded if we gave children the opportunity to learn more creatively and privately their understanding of the fundamentals in any subject would increase. This is just some of the knowledge I bring to my sessions. I use each session as an opportunity to uniquely tailor the subject to the student as a way to reinforce what they already know. Hobbies: art, reading, writing, books, music
