I received my Bachelor of Arts in Legal Studies and Sociology with a focus on qualitative methodologies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I received my RWE (Real World Experience) as a project manager for a medical software company with clients in Seattle and Tacoma, WA, and later as a case manager for a mediation and arbitration firm in Washington, D.C. As a doctoral student in the Department of American Studies at The University of Texas at Austin, I teach courses through the Center for Mexican American Studies in American Studies, Mexican American Studies, and Women's and Gender Studies. My courses are writing intensive and promote critical thinking, reading, and analytical skills. I stress to my students the importance of developing strong written and oral communication skills, as well as applicable skill sets that will translate in the professional world. I began my tutoring career in high school as a peer-to-peer volunteer tutor. I tutored first generation students and students from historically marginalized communities with the federal TRIO program as an undergraduate at UW. In D.C. I tutored second language learners looking to improve their English skills. Most recently, I worked with student athletes through the athletics department at UT. I tutor a variety of subjects in the humanities and social sciences, but my favorite sessions include those in which I help students with their writing assignments, as I truly enjoy seeing the tangible progress they make during our time together. I consider one of my specialties as an educator to be my ability to meet students where they're at in their learning process. I believe very strongly in the importance of education and equal access for all. I share this enthusiasm for learning with my students through positive energy, reinforcement, and encouragement. While I believe learning should be fun, my teaching style is firm, but fair. I have high expectations of my students and will do everything in my power to help them realize their full potential in achieving their educational goals. When I have downtime, I enjoy growing green things in my garden. I played competitive golf for a decade through college, so a friendly round is always a welcome relaxation. I also enjoy the beach, tennis, rock climbing, and discovering new fiction writers.

In addition, I have also mentored young men in the Boy Scouts of America in obtaining survival skills such as orienteering, camping, lifesaving, and emergency preparedness.Personally, the teaching style that I find most useful is a combination of understanding the students' learning approach through active listening/inquiring and displaying information in an effective manner for memorization and workflow.While tutoring interests me on an academic level, I enjoy playing and watching sports like tennis, football, and basketball. Also, I like venturing the outdoors recently, I have backpacked through Europe and camped on national parks in Wyoming and Texas.My main goal as a tutor is to inspire students to recognize their potential for utilizing straightforward methods to analyze and solve problems. By dissecting problems into its core components similar to those of previously worked problems, one can isolate the necessary information and creatively employ tested strategies to easily arrive to a solution.

As a kid, for my first few years of school I attended a bilingual Montessori program called Intercultura. There, I discovered the joy of organic learning. I eventually went on to study in more traditional schooling environments, including majoring in Economics at Washington University in St. Louis. However, I never forgot Intercultura and the freedom it allowed me to pursue my budding academic interests. I have tried to bring that same principle of student self-construction into my role as a tutor; whether I've been preparing collegians for the LSAT, or helping kindergarteners learn to read. I enjoy working with each student to find the best way for him/her to attack the subject material. I am able to tutor on a variety of subjects, but I'm especially passionate about test prep!

Hi, I'm a citation master! By day, I help restore buildings; by night, I help students succeed.I have a Master of Science in Historic Preservation and Architecture from the University of Texas at Austin, and a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While both of these degrees are design-oriented, each placed heavy emphasis on research and writing, public speaking, art and general history, logical reasoning, and a clear synthesis and presentation of ideas. I specialize in grammar and writing technique; study skills and organization; public speaking; reading comprehension; world, US, medieval, and art histories; ACT Reading, Writing, and English; AP English Language; and college admissions essays and preparation.I love conducting sessions as "learning labs" where open and honest discourse is the foundation from which critical knowledge is gleaned. My approach is threefold: create an inclusive, welcoming learning community that encourages and rewards exploration and curiosity; present the course material in a way that resonates deeply with each unique student and introduces them to new ideas each week; and foster critical thinking skills that can be applied in all schoolwork. Instead of recitation or simple coverage of lecture and reading material, my goal is to encourage students to consider differing viewpoints, feel comfortable expressing their beliefs, and reflect deeply upon how their values and learning style can translate to all work, both inside and outside of the classroom. Overall, I believe teaching and tutoring should foster skills that afford practical, tangible applications in other courses as well as in personal, professional, and social realms.

I first discovered my passion for teaching a few years ago when I began tutoring ACT and SAT for a tutoring company in my hometown of Frisco. Since then, I have gotten deeply involved with teaching. I have gotten to volunteer for non-profit college organizations at underserved Austin elementary schools to encourage kids to go into STEM, I have gotten to help teach for an introductory biomedical engineering laboratory class at UT, and I have been employed by UT's Engineering Student Services to tutor other students in organic chemistry for well over a year.

It is something I've been teaching for a long time, and it's a subject I've gotten to understand well. Other subjects I love to tutor include biology, chemistry, physics, and all math through calculus; my career path has required me to synthesize all these subjects rather well. ACT/SAT test prep is also something I enjoy teaching and is something I have experience with.

As a young girl, I frequently crossed the border between my home in Brownsville, Texas, and Matamoros, Mexico. Captivated by Matamoros, I was oblivious to the complexities of immigration issues. While in Matamoros, I immersed myself in the local culture, enjoying festivals at the plaza, eating at local restaurants, and shopping at the market. I was unaware that invisible borders held stories far beyond my understanding. As a recent college graduate, I ventured into Matamoros with great curiosity; I wanted to connect with migrants and asylum seekers whose stories I watched unfold on local and national news. I was driven to visit Matamoros, hoping to understand and address the challenges faced by the individuals on the international bridge. As I approached the border fence, its imposing structure became a stark reminder that I was standing between the threshold of two countries the familiar life I knew in the United States and the unknown aspects that awaited me in Mexico. Families from various countries stood near their makeshift encampments, desperately seeking safety and a better life in the United States. There were families from multiple countries. Indelible scenes unfolded before me: young children with eyes of innocence and desperation, tugging at the sleeves of exhausted parents, all carrying the hope for a better future. On the international bridge, I sparked a conversation with Leandra, a woman from El Salvador who was traveling with her husband and two children. Listening to Leandra's stories, I felt the weight of their journey as she explained that she had to escape the horrific violence and crime in their home country along with economic hardships. The fear and resilience in her children's eyes left a permanent mark on my soul. I spoke to an immigration officer and learned that hundreds of families stay in their tents until they are called to meet with immigration officials. These families need legal representation to apply for asylum as they seek refuge status. Countless souls converged here, seeking compassion, understanding, and a chance at a better life an existing reality invisible to me until I began conversing with them. This experience became an inspiration for my life's work. Motivated to make a meaningful difference, I recently began working at an immigration law firm. Working closely with an attorney, I connected with Jose Martinez and his family from Juarez, Mexico. They were striving for permanent residency in the United States after enduring hardships in their hometown. Jose expressed his aspirations of offering his family stability and security, envisioning a life devoid of the uncertainties they faced in Juarez. However, the journey was challenging. The legal intricacies became more than just paperwork; it represented the Martinez family's aspirations and the hurdles they faced. As we navigated the complexities, the emotional weight of the case became palpable. The fear of the unknown, the hope for a better life, and the bureaucratic hurdles all intertwined, creating a heartbreaking and inspiring narrative. Despite the challenges, the resilient spirit of the Martinez family shone through. The impact on me was profound. Witnessing the Martinez family's resilience fueled my determination to overcome each of their legal obstacles. I was more than just a legal aide; I became a support system, offering reassurance during moments of doubt and sharing in the family's small victories. The Martinez case showed me the personal and transformative impact that immigration law can have on those seeking refuge and opportunity. It reinforced the notion that my role as a legal aide goes beyond the legalities; it involves becoming champions for families striving to build a new life. In conclusion, my transformation from a carefree child in Brownsville to an advocate for individuals navigating immigration complexities has profoundly shaped my perception of borders and fueled my career aspirations. This journey has instilled in me a firm belief in the power of legal advocacy to shape narratives and promote a society that acknowledges our shared humanity beyond borders. I am dedicated to fostering a more compassionate understanding of border-influenced lives, aspiring to make a meaningful impact in law school, and ultimately succeeding as an attorney.
