After graduating from The Catholic University of America with a Bachelor's degree in Politics and Education Studies, I spent over 3 years teaching and tutoring in classroom and non-classroom settings. Now pursuing a Master's degree at Vanderbilt, my passion lies in fostering a supportive learning environment where elementary students can thrive in subjects such as English, Math, Reading, and even French. I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to meet each student's unique needs, employing engaging strategies that make learning enjoyable and effective. I am motivated by the joy of seeing my students gain confidence and achieve academic success. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading and exploring new cultures, which enriches my approach to education and helps me connect with my students on a personal level.
