I am an Arizona native and a graduate of Arizona State University. I received my B.A. in Communication in 2012. I work in client relations in the legal field and also enjoy helping others learn. I recently spent two years in Chicago with my fiance and loved living in the city, but am glad to be back in Arizona with the sunshine and family.

Q & A

What is your teaching philosophy?

My teaching philosophy is that everyone learns differently. What may work for one person may not for the next, and I think it is important to find a way of learning that works best for you.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

In a first session with a student, my main goal would be to get to know them and their goals, and try and understand their way of learning. I would try and keep it as relaxed and stress-free as possible, because being in new situations is hard enough without putting too many expectations on someone.

How can you help a student become an independent learner?

I think giving the students the right tools to build upon when learning is key to helping them become an independent learner. I do not want to just help students complete assignments or pass just one certain section of the class, but, instead, I would like to help them understand why a certain answer or process is correct. That way, they can utilize that in the future when they are on their own.

How would you help a student stay motivated?

Each student is motivated in a different way, so, first, I would try and discover what motivates that individual.

If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?

If a student has difficulty with a skill or concept, I think the best way to help is to break it down even further. The best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time, and if a concept is too complex, I would try and break it down to its simplest form, and then try and build the understanding from there.
