About
I have a lifelong passion for learning that I am eager to share with others. Currently I am working on my associate's degree after which I will continue my education. As a member of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society and a scholarship recipient, I take academics very seriously and I am proud of my 3.9 GPA. My favorite courses are the Humanities and I excel in them.
My love for academics and passion for helping others brought me to a another well-known tutoring platform in 2021. I tutored reading, writing and Humanities on a remote basis with dozens of students of all ages. I have found that empathy and positive reinforcement help empower students to be the catalyst in their own learning. By setting actionable goals and utilizing a customized approach, I encourage learners to achieve their personal best. Taking the time to create fun activities based on each student’s preferences is a critical step for me as it encourages engagement and enjoyment. Keeping education fun is great way to encourage a lifelong love of learning.
My next position was with another tutoring organization in 2022. This platform enables students of all grade levels to reach out on a live chat basis to tutors for assistance with homework and assignments. Paper focused on the development of critical thinking through the Socratic Method and active learning. I also preformed essay analysis. The essays submitted were from elementary to college level. As a reviewer, I provided holistic feedback and encouraged improvement beyond the given assignment to help them improve overall as writers.
As a tutor, my philosophy is to celebrate the uniqueness of every student. In addition to strengthening academic performance, I strongly encourage each student’s creativity, problem solving and critical thinking skills. These attributes are critical for success both in academics and in life. I also believe in the amazing results and improvement that can be acheived through increasing a student's self confidence.
