About Me

I earned a bachelor's degree in psychology at the University of Maryland in May 2023. I would like to use my degree in a field that involves education, children, and studying child cognition. I have over 3 years of tutoring experience, and math has always been a passion of mine. Thus, I prefer to tutor children in math, but I am qualified to tutor in subjects such as Spanish, science, and English. I find it very rewarding to help students learn and overcome struggles they have in school. Their smiles alone make the work worthwhile to me. My past experience tutoring students includes working with children between the ages of 6 and 16. While tutoring, I try my best to keep the student engaged by including physical and virtual math games, physical learning tools, and other learning instruments designed to make learning more engaging for students. My tutoring style is pretty hands-on, but I also try to sit back and allow the student to think more deeply about the content and absorb the knowledge on their own. Outside of academia, I love to draw, especially with graphite, but I do occasionally use charcoal, colored pencils, and pens. I also love to exercise at the gym, but I especially enjoy hot yoga and pilates classes. I was also a gymnast all throughout my childhood and adolescence, and I was a gymnastics instructor at my hometown gym in college.
