About
Since I am in high school, I have learned over the past year I have been tutoring that kids and teens are able to relate to me and I am able to help them more efficiently. It gives a sense of trust, knowing that I am not that much older than they are.
The most enjoyable part of the job is watching my students shift from curiosity to knowledge, and that "aha!" moment they have when learning something new.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Getting to know them and the strategy to best teach them first, whether it is showing them, giving fully-detailed explanations, or anything they may need to ensure they learn and remember.
How did you get started teaching?
When I first started tutoring, it was solely because I needed money, and I knew I had the brains to be a tutor. Although, after a few months, I came to enjoy it a lot.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students in elementary, middle, and high school with different reading levels, writing skills, and levels of learning in general. I tend to work with kids who are new to the subject or struggling with it a lot, but I've also worked with people who just want more explanation and direction.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Don't look for teachers who only promise you that you will learn, look for teachers who promise you that you will learn AND that promise to be patient, empathetic, and friendly.
