About Me
I just graduated from the Macaulay Honors College at the City College of New York. I completed my Bachelors of Engineering in Earth System Science and Environmental Engineering. I'm currently taking a gap year before pursuing graduate school.
Experience
As a member of the tutoring program in my high school I started tutoring since a very young age. My junior year of high school I started working my first job which was a tutoring position for 7th and 8th graders at a public school in Ozone Park. From then, as a college student, I went on to tutor English, Reagents Prep and AP courses for the high school students in my immigrant church community. Lastly, in college I worked as a math SAT prep tutor for students from undeserved areas.
Approach
It's my approach to build relationships with my students that span beyond that of a tutor-student. I believe that by earning their trust I can better instill in them the confidence to succeed and to push themselves forward. I also try to to explain the material with real-life examples so that my students won't get bored and I'm a strong advocate in setting short term goals and rewarding them when they reach it. I believe that being a tutor is a privilege and it's my duty to ensure quality.
