About
From January 2015 to June 2017, I tutored elementary and middle school students in all subjects. In February 2018, I started teaching Spanish to students grades K to 2. I facilitate meetings with other instructors to discuss problems that have come up, brainstorm lesson plans and serve as a resource for instructors. In September 2018, I became a tutor and teaching assistant for Spanish 101 and 102. I have a concentration in Education Studies and have completed coursework and teacher trainings including but not limited to the Principles of Education, Language Pedagogy: The Theory & Practice of Teaching and Learning Languages, and the Organic World Language Teacher Training.
I love helping students succeed. I am patient, kind, and supportive toward all of my students and believe that a key part of academic success comes from a good learning environment. Students need to be encouraged and supported to accomplish all that they are capable of.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Typically, I will first assess what a student knows by asking them to explain what they can. This reinforces the knowledge that they have (teaching someone else makes increases memory and comprehension of a subject) and gives me an idea of where they are struggling. Then, I go from there.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
