About the Tutor

I am a dual enrollment high school student in the US who loves to teach and help others build confidence through learning. That is of course when I'm not dancing, figure skating, teaching, or practicing yoga! I have been tutoring K-8 students in all core academic classes for 3 years in both group and 1-on-1 settings. I have also expanded to tutoring high school and AP level courses for about 2 years now. Tutoring allows me to inspire learners to grow in their academic environment, and as a whole person, which is by far, an unmatched feeling. I teach by exploring concepts in an interactive and light atmosphere. I will then work with students to practice in-context and real-world problems both during sessions and asynchronously. From there, I will measure each student's progress individually, using various checkpoints to determine the best route. Schedule a session for a fun time learning, connecting, having fun, and talking about your interests! :)
