Experienced Teacher And Harvard Graduate
About
I have been teaching and tutoring for over 10 years, both during my undergraduate time at Harvard, where I also attended Education school, and professionally at several high schools. I have a Master's Degree in Secondary Education and am enrolled in a PhD program in Education as well! I believe in learning as empowerment, as passion, and as a tool for you and your success. I specialize in a number of subjects, including ESL, Spanish, English, and social studies, as well as test prep for ACT, SAT, and more.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to get to know a student's interests, their strengths, their anxieties, and styles of learning first. Then, I like to have students identify some goals, including one that is outside their comfort zone! We make a plan that we both can agree on, and then I tailor lessons to student interests to help them along their path to reach these goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I received my Educator licensure from Harvard Graduate School of Education, in addition to a B.A. in psychology. I recently received my Master's degree in secondary education with an emphasis in English as a Second Language. I also direct an ESL program in the South of Lebanon where I train and work with volunteer English teachers. I have 6 years of formal classroom experience, teaching introductory ESL, high school social studies, and International Baccalaureate classes as well. I am a matriculating PhD student in Educaiton.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My standard rate is $30 an hour with the opportunity for more lessons at a slightly higher rate.
How did you get started teaching?
I have had a lifelong passion for teaching. My mom is a teacher, and education runs in our blood. I loved school, but also knew that so many others around me did not. I wanted to share my knowledge and help others find the things they liked to learn as well.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with elementary, middle, and high-school aged students from almost every educational, socioeconomic, and linguistic background you can think of.
