MS Texas State University-San Marcos • BA The University of Texas at Austin
1+ Years Tutoring

I attended Yale University and the University of Texas at Austin where I majored in English and minored in Philosophy. I recently completed a Masters in Professional Counseling at Texas State University. I first began tutoring while teaching ESL for two years in Taiwan after college. It was a great experience! Alongside teaching classes, I tutored individual students and adults in English language arts, and led SAT prep and humanities study groups at the Princeton Review. I love teaching and tutoring and am passionate about what my father, a former university professor, calls "the world of ideas." In particular, I am interested in literature, poetry, and the mechanics of writing, as well as issues related to psychology, philosophy, economics, and history. My long-term career goals include bringing together my training as a therapist and my background in education by working in higher education counseling settings.

I completed my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at MIT in 2024. As a graduate student, I was a Teaching Assistant for Thermal Fluids Engineering courses (combined Heat Transfer, Thermodynamics, and Fluid Mechanics course) for college upperclassmen in mechanical engineering and advanced manufacturing courses for undergraduate and graduate students across disciplines at MIT. I completed my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, during which I worked part-time tutoring high school students in physics, math and mechanical engineering and helped them with test preparation skills for the ACT and SAT. The primary subjects I teach are Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics, Physics: Mechanics, and various math subjects including Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, Geometry and Algebra. I can also assist in test preparation for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam and college entrance exams. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore complex concepts. My sessions focus on (1) understanding a student's current understanding of a concept, (2) identifying gaps, and (3) bridging those gaps with explanations, examples, and analogies. I believe in adapting my approach to meet individual learning styles, ensuring that each student can grasp challenging material effectively. I am motivated by the joy of seeing my students succeed and gain confidence in their abilities! Outside of tutoring, I work as a Mechanical Engineer for an EPC in Houston, Texas. I recently passed the FE exam and received my Engineer In Training Certificate.

2+ Years Tutoring

As a sophomore studying Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, I am incredibly passionate about STEM and medicine. This journey has been incredibly rewarding, not just in terms of the knowledge I've gained, but also in the opportunities I've had to share this knowledge with others. Teaching has become a cornerstone of my learning process. I've discovered that explaining complex concepts to my peers helps them and solidifies my understanding in a way nothing else has. I believe that every student deserves access to a wealth of resources to support their learning. However, I also recognize that true learning happens when students take responsibility for their education. It's about being curious, asking questions, and seeking out answers. My goal is to create an environment where resources are abundant and accessible, but where students are also encouraged to take an active role in their own learning journey.

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Philosophy at The University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX. I then went on to get a Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin. I worked as a social worker for the State of Oklahoma Department of Human Services for ten years. I also worked with mentally ill inmates at the Mabel Basset Correctional Center for Women. I had to take early retirement due to health problems but what looked like a tragedy at the time, has allowed me to follow my childhood dream of being an author. I have sent my first crime novel, A Massage to Die For, to an editor. Before I turned to fiction, I published in several professional, psychological journals including the Journal of the Oklahoma Criminal Justice Research Consortium and the Southwestern Psychological Association. I want to be able to share the knowledge I have gained during this journey with my students.
