We think and learn differently; we are unique in our struggles and in our strengths. As an educator, I believe that my job is not to provide answers, but rather to provide the necessary tools for my students to critically think and solve problems independently. As a tutor, I adapt my lesson plans to the student's individual needs and encourage active communication and questions. I believe that a transformative and motivating learning environment is integral for the ability of a student to grow and succeed.

I graduated from University of California, San Diego in Summer of 2015 with a Bachelor of Arts in Ethnic Studies. In the fall, I plan on attending New York University for a master's program in Near Eastern Studies, with a long term goal of pursuing a PhD in History. I have taught Arabic at several independent schools in San Diego and have tutored non-Arabic-speaking students in Arabic conversation and writing. My volunteering experience includes teaching Syrian refugees English conversation and writing. I have also held one-on-one essay-writing workshops for high school students and have tutored elementary and middle school-aged students in reading and writing. I enjoy all subjects, but I am particularly passionate about Arabic, History, English, and Literature, including Writing and Grammar.

Educate, learn, and grow!
