- I'm passionate about helping students build confidence by focusing on understanding concepts rather than memorizing steps.
About Me
I discovered my interest in teaching while working as a substitute teacher for the Dallas Independent School District, where I enjoyed helping students work through challenging material. I also tutored at the Dallas LIFE Homeless shelter for a while. As a tutor, I aim to make difficult topics clear, practical, and approachable.
Hobbies & Interests
Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading fiction books, hiking with my dog Norman, playing videogames, collecting plants, and going to movies. I'm a huge fan of science fiction books and movies. I also love going to concerts.
