As a rising 3rd year physics major at UMBC, I take several upper-level physics and math courses and have excelled in the subject since grade school. I also very much enjoy tutoring other students in these subjects and have tutored my peers throughout high school and college. These experiences helped me learn how to better work with others and to adapt my teaching strategies between different people. I know what it is like to struggle in classes, and I would really like to help others succeed in classes they find difficult. I truly believe anyone can excel in any subject given the necessary resources, not the least of which is someone to support and believe in them. I hope to instill this belief in my students and inspire them to pay it forward.
