I find immense joy in witnessing the "aha" moments of my students, that transformative instant when comprehension dawns and they realize their own progress. Guiding them through their learning journey fills me with a profound sense of fulfillment. Growing up, I navigated my education largely on my own, and that experience taught me the value of having a supportive mentor. Now, as a tutor, I aspire to be that bridge for my rising stars, easing their academic burdens and empowering them to reach their full potential.

My approach to tutoring is marked by an infectious sense of fun and empathy. I tailor my teaching methods to suit each student's unique learning style, whether that involves weaving Bluey-themed examples or employing hands-on basketball analogies. With over three years of experience tutoring students aged 5 to 14, I've honed the ability to adapt my approach to accommodate learners of all ages.

I see myself not just as a tutor, but as a guide and mentor, empowering students to develop a solid understanding of the subject matter. If a particular method isn't resonating with a student, I take it upon myself to explore alternative approaches until we find the perfect fit.

My educational journey began at Miami Dade College (MDC) where I started taking dual enrollment classes at 13 years old. Graduating high school from the prestigious School for Advanced Studies (SAS) alongside completing my AA degree from MDC set the stage for my ongoing studies at the University of Florida. Currently a sophomore majoring in Behavior Analysis and minoring in Family, Youth and Community Sciences.

In my tutoring practice, I specialize in K-8 mathematics, Algebra 1, and Python coding. Mathematics and Python hold a special place in my heart, each presenting its own unique challenges and opportunities for growth. Specifically, for Python, I revel in the rush and immense joy when a code finally works and when I grasp a new logic. Nothing tops that feeling, except perhaps witnessing that same exhilaration in my Rising Stars. Seeing them achieve their breakthrough moments, after striving so hard for it, is truly priceless. It reinforces my passion for guiding them towards success and fuels my dedication to their growth.
