About Me

I am a professional tutor with 4 years of experience tutoring math and English as a second language. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Chicago and I tutor grades 4-10.

Tutoring Style

My tutoring style is personalized and adaptive, tailored to each student's unique learning needs and preferences. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring concepts at their own pace. I emphasize clarity and simplicity in explanations, breaking down complex topics into manageable steps to enhance understanding. Through interactive discussions, practical examples, and constructive feedback, I strive to foster critical thinking skills and confidence in my students. I am committed to helping them grasp academic content and encouraging a deeper appreciation for the subject matter and its real-world applications. Ultimately, my goal is to empower students to become independent learners equipped to tackle challenges enthusiastically and succeed.

Success Story

I provided tutoring to a 7th-grade student who faced challenges in various subjects, particularly math. In addition to teaching concepts, I emphasized effective study techniques, which bolstered his confidence over time. Despite his ADHD, which occasionally impacted his focus during our sessions, we persevered with patience and dedication, leading to consistent progress. By the time he reached 9th grade, he had become self-assured and independent in his schoolwork, consistently earning A grades across most subjects, no longer requiring my direct support.
