Fun Facts
A big interest of mine is horseback riding. I only wish I got to do it more! I also love to read, and I spend so much time and money in the bookstore. It's quickly becoming a problem. In my free time, i like to watch Bollywood movies, go to museums, and try new foods.
If I had to choose a sport that I'd like to learn, it'd be tennis. I might be horrible at it, but it seems like fun!
About Me
I am a junior Political Science major at Howard University. I also study English and Psychology, which are two passions of mine. After I leave college, I would love to enroll in a graduate program for Anthropology. Ultimately, I would love to become a university professor.
Experience
While in high school, and during my freshman year of college, I tutored home-educated students in various subjects. I also helped with Test Prep, particularly with the Reading/Writing Portions of the SAT and ACT. I also tutored for the AP English, History, and Psychology exams. In addition, I tutored for the SAT Subject Tests in Literature. While working as a tutor, I also aided students in applying to colleges by helping them find scholarships, write admissions essays, research requirements.
Approach
I absolutely love to teach and I find it to be the most rewarding use of my time. When teaching, I don't aim for rote memorization. Instead, I try to engage each student with the material, often encouraging them to find parallels in their daily lives. I often use various platforms to teach, by utilizing videos, books, field trips, and artistic projects.
