Fun Facts

I'm an avid puzzler, interested in traditional and cryptic crosswords! I attend the National Puzzler's League Convention every year and recently participated in the MIT Mystery Hunt. I love poetry and music; my other hobbies include rock climbing, slacklining, and lifting weights.

About Me

I am a recent graduate from NYU, where I earned my B.A. in Linguistics, and minored in Creative Writing. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with an overall GPA of 3.9. In the future, I hope to further my studies by pursuing a PhD in linguistics!

Experience

During high school, I tutored students in English and ESL, and during my undergraduate studies at NYU, I tutored two of my peers in Expository Writing.

Approach

I'm a big reader and writer, but I understand that not everyone shares my interest—so, I aim to simplify the steps towards improving reading and writing skills to make learning more approachable and accessible to students who struggle with and may not enjoy the subject matter. I approach tutoring with a positive attitude and seek to demystify English comprehension and composition through clear instruction and an adaptive approach catered to the success of each student.
