I'm most passionate about helping students because during my middle school and high school experience I relied heavily on outside help to do well in school. Being a student who needs a variety of teaching techniques, I understand that you need to find fun and unique ways to learn and retain what you're learning. Right now, I'm received my Bachelor's of Science degree in Physics, with a minor in Japanese and Mathematics. I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Philosophy in Experimental Nuclear Physics at Vanderbilt University. Math and science were subjects I formerly thought I was not good at and did not enjoy, until I found teachers and tutors who got me excited me about STEM experiments and discoveries, and encouraged me to learn more. I hope that I can inspire students who feel they are not good at math and science, and therefore do not enjoy it, to learn the beauty in those subjects and enjoy what they're learning.
