Experience
I graduated from Duke University with my bachelor's in mathematics. While enrolled, I completed research, publications, and coursework on one-on-one teaching during a tutoring training course. I gained a great deal of teaching experience with the Thompson Writing Program and the Breakthrough Collaborative, where I learned grade school and university teaching styles. I learned how to teach students from the ground up, starting by developing a solid foundation in early concepts and expanding on them. I am adept in teaching both in small and large groups. I am continuously evaluating my students for improvement, adjusting my pace as needed. I understand the importance of validation as it relates to building confidence and enthusiasm in the subject. I provide a variety of media to develop an engaging session for my students. I can offer my guidance in a variety of subjects, including English, theatre, Spanish, and technology and computer science. If a student needs help preparing for the SSAT or HSPT, I can help them learn valuable study tips and test-taking strategies to improve their scores. When I'm not working, I love exploring the theatres of New York City. I am a photographer and love capturing my travels on film.
