Outside of my educational pursuits, I am an avid enthusiast of diverse interests and hobbies that fuel my curiosity and passion for life. When I'm not in the virtual classroom, you'll often find me exploring the great outdoors through hiking and kayaking adventures. There's something incredibly rejuvenating about immersing myself in the natural world, connecting with its beauty and serenity. Cooking is another of my cherished pastimes. Experimenting with flavors and cuisines from around the world brings me immense joy. Much like teaching, it's a creative process that allows me to express myself and share experiences with others. I am an ardent reader and writer, constantly delving into books that span various genres and cultures. Writing, to me, is a means of introspection and expression, whether through academic essays, creative stories, or the scripts for the podcast I host. Speaking of which, podcasting has been an exciting endeavor for me, enabling me to engage with thought-provoking topics, especially in the realm of politics, where I have a keen interest. Travel is a profound source of inspiration in my life. Exploring new places, immersing myself in different cultures, and understanding the complexities of our world have broadened my horizons and enriched my perspective. These diverse interests and experiences have shaped my teaching philosophy and tutoring style, allowing me to draw upon real-life examples and a well-rounded perspective when helping students navigate the subjects I specialize in. I believe that the world is a classroom in itself, and by sharing my experiences and passions, I hope to inspire my students to embrace lifelong learning and curiosity.
