Working with students of diverse backgrounds, interests, ages, abilities and experiences has taught me that helping someone find their strengths and overcome academic challenges is the most impactful and rewarding undertaking and is something I hope to continue for the rest of my life.

...Prior to coming to Berkeley, I worked as a tutor in the Los Angeles area for two and a half years. During that time, I worked with students one-on-one as well as in a classroom setting, teaching an SAT prep class and tutoring in the AVID program at a local high school.

...from “good” to "great,” I want to be a part of their journey and their success. I want to empower students to develop the skills to learn on their own at any level; students should master the material itself, but also develop the study skills necessary to succeed.
