As a dedicated Biotechnology major at the University of California, Davis, I am deeply passionate about inspiring a love for learning in my students, particularly in elementary and middle school reading comprehension, math, and writing. With over 5 years of tutoring experience, I have successfully supported students from kindergarten through eighth grade, helping them gain confidence and mastery within these subjects. My teaching philosophy emphasizes a personalized approach that is catered towards each student's unique learning style, breaking down complex concepts into manageable parts and providing relatable examples. I strive to create a supportive and encouraging environment where mistakes are viewed as opportunities for growth, empowering students to ask questions and take pride in their progress both in and out of their classroom setting.
