Fun Facts
My students are often surprised to learn that I am an avid runner and swimmer. Sunshine or blizzard you can find me running outside in my favorite parks and trails. I also keep busy by playing bassoon (think giant oboe), saxophone, and viola. I keep up on my Spanish skills by watching Spanish Netflix series and listening to Spanish podcasts.
About Me
I recently graduated as Biology major with multiple honors from Gustavus Adolphus College, a world renowned liberal arts college. I am currently spending a year of service in the AmeriCorps working as a middle school math tutor. Next year I will be pursuing my dream to become a physician by starting medical school. Though, as an educator through and through, I hope to tutor on the side while earning my medical degree.
Experience
My earliest experience in education was as a volunteer assistant ESL tutor for Latinx immigrants. Excited about teaching, I later taught kindergarten Spanish courses and tutored college students. I eventually developed my skills such that I took on a position teaching summer high school Spanish courses. I am currently applying my teaching skills in the STEM field, tutoring math at a public school.
Approach
As a STEM tutor, I believe it is of the utmost importance that students develop strong problem solving skills. I help students develop these skills by questioning the student's line of reasoning until they come to the correct answer themselves. This method also applies to writing help, where I will point out errors and ask the student how they think they should fix it. For Spanish tutoring I blend immersion learning with grammar and culture-focused instruction.
