About Me
I am finishing up my residency at the miami">University of Miami in pediatric psychology. Prior to residency, I have conducted psychological and health-related research, mentored a number of university students from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and tutored a middle school student. My goal is to become professor of psychology to teach students and conduct research in a university setting.
Experience
During my doctoral training at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I had the opportunity of mentoring and miami">tutoring many University students, as well as a middle school student. I particularly enjoyed investing in my students and watching them become academic superstars! For example, many of my undergraduate scholars have presented their research at national conferences. The middle school student I tutored also benefited as he saw drastic improvements in his math grade.
Approach
I am very much rooted in a strengths-based approach to miami">tutoring. That is, I spend time identifying the child/adolescent's strengths (e.g., motivation, language) to help address the areas of weakness. Ultimately, in addition to teaching and practicing academic concepts, I try to instill a sense of self efficacy and confidence in each of the students I miami">tutor.
