About Me
I am a junior at maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University majoring in Psychology with a Pre-Law designation. My ultimate goal is to become a social justice lawyer and then go on to become a judge.
Experience
I have a little experience coaching young people through an organization called Youth for Debate, which empowers the youth to advocate for themselves through public speaking and debate. I've worked with the organization since 2012, and this year, I've been working closely with 10 middle school students, teaching them about debate and coaching them through their cases.
Approach
Growing up, I was always inspired by teachers who were passionate and knowledgeable in their realm of expertise. As a tutor, I hope to be both well-informed about my subject of interest and bring a level of enthusiasm that really makes children excited about learning.

Algebra Tutoring
I've taken many math classes during my time in school. These classes include Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, and AP Calculus BC. I received A's in all of these classes, and I believe that this mastery equips me to tutor algebra quite well.
English Tutoring
I've taken and excelled in many English classes throughout my academic career. I've received a final grade grade of 100, for example, in AP English Language and AP English Literature most recently. The last English class I took at Columbia was Literature Humanities. I received a 94 percent in that class. I believe that my capabilities are accurately displayed in my performance in these classes.
History Tutoring
I have a taken a variety of history classes during my academic career, the most recent being AP US History and AP European History. I displayed high proficiency in both subjects, earning a 4/5 on the AP US History Exam and a 5/5 on the AP European History. I have an enthusiasm for the past, and I believe that shines through these scores.
Homework Coach Tutoring
I have plenty of experience coaching young people through homework. I have a younger, 11-year-old brother who constantly comes to me with issues staying on task with homework assignments and finishing assignments on time. I have been a partner with him, as a result, for completing assignments with diligence and accuracy.
Math Tutoring
I've taken many math classes during my time in school. These classes include Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, and AP Calculus BC. I received A's in all of these classes, and I believe that this mastery equips me to tutor math quite well.
Pre Algebra Tutoring
I've taken many math classes during my time in school. These classes include Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, and AP Calculus BC. I received A's in all of these classes, and I believe that this mastery equips me to tutor pre-algebra quite well.
Reading Comprehension Tutoring
I have demonstrated a proficiency with my reading comprehension skills though my AP and SAT scores. I received a 5/5 on my AP English Language Exam and a 760 on my SAT English Comprehension Exam. Not to mention, I love reading and would cherish the opportunity to help others read better.
Spanish Tutoring
I have taken 5 and a half years of Spanish in high school and college combined. Throughout my high school years, I received an average of 97 percent in my Spanish classes and in high school I received a 93 percent in my Intermediate Spanish II classes, which fulfilled the Columbia foreign language requirement. My scores depict my proficiency for the language and also serve to demonstrate my love for Spanish as well.
Study Skills Tutoring
Studying is often a time of drudgery for many students. I think that with the enthusiasm and experience of a tutor like me, that studying can actually be enjoyable! I've spent my fair share of time in libraries and dorm rooms preparing for exams, and I would like to share some of the tips I've learned with my tutees.
Writing Tutoring
I think my biggest skill is my writing. Not only am I a slam poet, I've excelled in my writing courses up to this point. For one, I scored high in the SAT Writing Section (740) and excelled in my University Writing class, receiving a 94%.
Elementary Math Tutoring
I've taken many math classes during my time in school. These classes include Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, and AP Calculus BC. I received A's in all of these classes, and I believe that this mastery equips me to tutor elementary math quite well.
Social Studies Tutoring
I loved social studies growing up. It was one of the rare times in elementary school that I got to learn about other cultures and travel through time. I think social studies relates greatly to history, which is one of my strong suits. (I received a 4/5 and 5/5 in AP US and AP European History respectively.)
