As a recent graduate with a Bachelor's in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh, I bring over 2 years of tutoring experience, specializing in public speaking and writing skills. My teaching philosophy centers on flexibility and compassion, recognizing that each student learns differently. I strive to create a supportive environment where students can express their challenges and feel encouraged to grow. My background in theater allows me to infuse creativity into my lessons, helping learners find their unique voices in writing and speaking. I am passionate about empowering students, particularly youth, to overcome their fears surrounding public speaking and writing, fostering both confidence and competence. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy outdoor activities and exploring new ways to engage with students, ensuring our sessions are both educational and enjoyable.
