Experience
During my time in high school I worked a non profit organization called Peninsula Bridge Program working with students in 5th and 7th grade as a writing/English tutor for morning sessions and camp activities counselor in the afternoons. In school I took a variety of AP courses, in which I passed the AP US History, English and Spanish Literature exams with a 4 and AP Spanish Language with a 5. I've worked as an America Reads Literacy Tutor for my last year in college. I specifically worked with kindergarden and 2nd graders at an underprivileged school in the San Francisco Unified School District where I focused my time helping students with basic reading and writing skills as well as phonetics. Much of my course work in the performing arts curriculum centered around facilitating class discussion/dialogue as well as devised work, meaning I and my cast would create our own art work from the ground up (creating our own concept art, composing our own playlists/music, writing our own work, producing). All in all, I have a deep passion for tutoring and teaching, partially because of the passionate and exhilarating educators I have had in my own career while believing that education should be dynamic, engaging,and open to addressing an student's individual needs.
