My tutoring philosophy is rooted in the belief that students flourish when they are invited into a community of inquiry one that challenges them, supports them, and encourages them to see politics not only as an academic discipline but as a lived experience. I often think of teaching as cultivating a diverse garden: each student arrives with unique strengths, needs, and perspectives, and my role is to create the conditions in which all of them can grow. I aim to guide students with openness, curiosity, and a commitment to helping them develop as thinkers, citizens, and members of an intellectual community. Additionally, I love political science so much that my B.A., M.A., and PhD are all from this field. Comparative Politics, International Relations, and American Politics are my greatest strengths.
