About the Tutor

I'm Ariel, and I'm here because I want to go on the journey of learning with others. Love and passion know no boundaries, and whether that’s in opening a new book or finding innovative ways to solve a math problem, the possibilities of learning are boundless. Yet in a world where we stigmatize making mistakes, we often feel isolated and alienated in our process of learning. I want to create a safe and inclusive environment where we can foster confidence and spark curiosity. I hold the quote "we don't make mistakes—we just have happy accidents" close to heart. And in these encouraging interactions, we find something more than joy; we find meaning. I'm grateful to be a part of a community of inspiration: a fearless place for us to build each other up.
