Experience
I earned my bachelor's degree in Religious Studies at Yale University and also attended Duke Divinity School, graduating Summa Cum Laude. I have been tutoring even since high school, where I assisted junior high English as a second language students with their Math and English skills. Following that, I taught study tips, Writing, Chemistry, and Math during the summer at a private school in California. I also worked to develop new Religious Studies and Theology curriculum for high schools and colleges. One of my favorite things to teach is test prep, because I believe drilling the students on the core concepts that are used on those tests helps set a great foundation that they can then build on going forward. What keeps me coming back to tutoring are those moments of enlightenment when a student suddenly understands some concept that previously escaped them. I do my very best to always be encouraging with the students I teach and instill them with confidence that will help them in the future. In my free time I like photography, baking, singing, and reading.
