As an enthusiastic educator with a Master's in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix and a Bachelor's in Finance from the University of Arizona, I have over 5 years of tutoring experience in Corporate Finance, ESL/ELL, Economics, and English. My tutoring journey began in the Marines, where I taught English to peers facing literacy challenges, which ignited my passion for teaching. I adopt a student-centered approach, focusing on real-world applications that empower learners to think critically and make informed financial decisions. I believe in fostering practical skills that extend beyond academics, equipping students for success in their personal and professional lives. Outside of tutoring, I am passionate about advocating for improved financial education, understanding its vital role in navigating life's challenges. I enjoy exploring financial markets and teaching students how to apply finance and economics in practical scenarios, ensuring they are prepared for the complexities of modern life.
