About
With over 13 years of dedicated experience in tutoring and teaching, I am deeply committed to empowering students to excel in their academic pursuits. My passion for education is rooted in a profound belief that every student has the potential for success when provided with the right guidance and support.
Throughout my career, I have applied a culturally competent framework to education, recognizing the importance of acknowledging and respecting the diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of my students. This approach not only fosters a more inclusive learning environment but also ensures that every student's unique needs are met.
One of my core values is education equity. I firmly believe that education should be accessible to all, regardless of socioeconomic status, race, or any other factors that may create disparities. I actively advocate for equitable educational opportunities and work tirelessly to bridge the gap between privilege and access.
My teaching philosophy centers on the idea that education is not just about imparting knowledge but also about nurturing critical thinking skills, fostering curiosity, and instilling a lifelong love for learning. As a lifelong learner myself, I am in a unique position to create an engaging and supportive learning environment where students are empowered to reach their full potential.
I look forward to continuing my journey in education, championing equity, and helping students achieve their academic aspirations.
