I am a graduate of West Chester University of Pennsylvania. I received a Bachelor of Arts in History and Education, and am certified to teach Social Studies in grades 7-12 in Pennsylvania. I am currently working towards my certification to teach Spanish in Pennsylvania as well. I have tutored 4th graders in Spanish during my senior year in high school and more recently taught Global Studies at Upper Darby High School near Philadelphia. My favorite subjects in school were always Spanish and History, and I am incredibly happy and excited to be able to teach both of those subjects now as a Varsity Tutor. I believe that the goal of education is to give students life long learning skills and most importantly teaching students to be critical thinkers. When I am not teaching you will find me playing sports, usually tennis or ice hockey, or playing guitar. Also, in the winter time I try to make it to the mountains to snowboard as often as I can.
