About Me

I am a proud life-long learner!
I have a strong passion for education--learning and teaching.

I was very fortunate to have some incredibly spectacular teachers throughout my academic career, who were knowledgeable and engaging educators and caring and patient individuals. Like my favorite former teachers, I enjoy helping others learn and knowing that I am helping to provide them with knowledge, thinking skills, and a set of tools that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.

Experience

I am a former New York City educator with years of teaching and tutoring experience.

Approach

The approach I have adopted and cultivated within myself emulates those of my favourite former teachers. My goal as an educator is to help my students unleash their full potential and gain knowledge and skills that will last throughout their lifetime. My hope for all of my students is that, with my help, they will not only achieve immediate academic success, but they will hone their critical thinking skills to become intelligent consumers of information and proud life-long learners.
