I graduated with a BA from Allegheny College in 2019 with a double major in English and Theatre and a minor in Education Studies. While I was at Allegheny, I was a tutor for the America Reads program where I was a classroom tutor in all subjects for a 6th grade class for all 4 years. I then graduated from Pitt's MAT program in 2020, and earned my English 7-12 Teaching Certificate,and completed my student teaching in an 8th grade Language Arts class. This year, I have been a long term substitute in a 6th grade English class for the entire school year. I also have experience tutoring for SATs and up through 8th grade level math. My main interests are in English and Literature, but I also enjoy Theatre and Drama, skiing, traveling, and knitting. I would describe myself as energetic, hardworking and friendly!

I graduated from Allegheny College with an English degree and high honors in 2009. I went on to Penn State to study biochemistry and premed. My schooling has been diverse! While I can teach various subjects, these are my favorites:1) ADMISSIONS ESSAYS! You heard it, I love this challenging form of writing. My previous clients often came to me frustrated and uncertain where to begin. After tutoring, though, they were admitted with great essays. I'd say my tutoring style is thorough and demanding, especially for those applying for reach or Ivy League schools. I'm also convinced, though, that you will have fun and let your personality shine through!2) Organic Chemistry and Physics. I actually struggled with science in high school. After high school physics, I was convinced I was "terrible at it" and swore I would "never take science again." Despite this, I had felt drawn to science since childhood, and I had a nagging desire to learn it. I finally decided to gather up my courage and study biochemistry at Penn State. I had to learn step-by-step through hard work, but I ultimately did great, and I learned the material very thoroughly. Who knew physics would turn out to be my favorite class?I can also tutor general chemistry, biochemistry, biology, genetics, and statistics, and I can teach writing in all its forms (grammar, English essays, scientific writing, etc.) Finally, if you need a break from all these intense subjects, I could always introduce you my two favorite hobbies- piano and salsa dancing!

I am a graduate of Allegheny College, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and minored in English. I am currently enrolled at the City University of New York, where I am working as a graduate student for a PhD in biochemistry. I mostly tutor science and math, both of which I enjoy thoroughly. My goal as a tutor is to help my students in understanding and gaining interest in the subjects instead of pure memorization. In my spare time I enjoy ice hockey, skiing, and mountain biking.
I started my career with the intention of getting a PhD in molecular neurobiology, and developed a passion for education. I would love to help you grow as a learner as I continue to grow as an educator.

I see tutoring as a give and take between the student and tutor.I focus on the oral history and traditions aspect of anthropology along with aspect of ethnography. My job will be to guide you through the reading and understanding of the work researchers do in various communities. There will be key vocabulary words and concepts that might require further independent research if the student is interested.I have been studying Spanish for seven years now. If the student wishes we can focus on different aspects such as grammar, literature, writing, reading, speaking and or listening. I will leave it up to the student to decide where they think they need more help. I am happy to do a little of everything as well.
I'm passionate about helping students reach their goals because I believe every student has the potential to succeed.

Most recently, I was a teaching assistant for undergraduate journalism classes at Arizona State University from August 2015 to May 2017. I also served as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Dominican Republic from 2012 to 2015. While I was there, I taught environmental education courses, helped coach a volleyball team, and taught an entrepreneurship course.I earned a master's degree in journalism from Arizona State University in May 2017. I attained a bachelor's degree in environmental science, with a minor in Spanish, from Allegheny College in Pennsylvania. I would love to tutor students in Spanish or environmental science -- some of my favorite subjects. I've spent more than four years living in Spanish-speaking countries and I love opportunities to help other people learn Spanish.Outside of academia, I enjoy outdoor activities such as running and hiking. I'm also an avid reader and I love to cook.
I am a graduate of Allegheny College where I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology. Additionally, I minored in Spanish and Global Health Studies during my time there. I also recently graduated from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine where I received my Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) and Master of Medical Science (MMS) degrees. During my time at Allegheny College, I was a Chemistry Laboratory Teaching Assistant as well as a Chemistry Tutor.

While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about science, health, and language - specifically Biology, Chemistry, and Spanish. I believe that education is one of the most important aspects of life, as we are all lifelong learners. I hope to bring this appreciation for learning to all of the students that I tutor so that they can become enthusiastic, motivated, and curious to the many possibilities surrounding them. In my free time, I enjoy baking, cooking, reading, exercising, meditation, and listening to music.
