Experience
I consider tutoring more than just a job - it’s a passion. Understanding the learning process for each student is essential for that student’s success. I enjoy using the active learning style for students that struggle with a certain subject. This style has assisted both myself and my tutees in enhancing our understanding of diverse subject matters and has contributed to our improved preparation for many tests. As Vince Lombardi says, “Practice doesn't make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect.” I strongly believe that hard work and consistent practice are the keys to success. During my undergraduate career as a pre-med student, I worked as a tutor for subjects such as Physics, Biology, Algebra, Calculus I, Chemistry and Spanish. I often help students work through their assignments and improve their test-taking skills. I enjoy tutoring students year-round.
