Hi, I'm Angie and I'm currently in my senior year in HKIS. I'm looking to pursue biology in college, and I've taken courses such as AP human geography, AP language and composition, AP biology, and AP economics. In my free time besides academics, I enjoy drawing, golf, and connecting with my friends. I also love meeting new people and establishing new connections.
When tutoring, I want to not only just teach the student and help them grow in education, but form a bond as a friend. I believe that learning should be enjoyable rather than monotonous. I believe that teaching by play can be very effective amongst lower age groups, such as picking up vocabulary whilst playing with puzzles or actively using and incorporating new information while conducting an activity. In older age groups, I also believe in flexibility and understanding the student's needs. Everyone has a different way of understanding material, and I want to acknowledge that, whether it be through changing the method of explaining, or using a different medium such as visual guides to help learning.

Tutoring Experience
Within HKIS, I work as a Teaching Assistant in the class Humanities 1 in Action and AP biology, meaning that I understand how to work with students with various styles of learning. I also hold many leadership roles within clubs and teams, showing that I am capable and organized. Additionally, I grew up in Beijing, speak mandarin at home, and actively learned the intricacies of this language for almost every year of my life, making me qualified to tutor Mandarin. Regarding biology, I've taken the highest level courses offered in HKIS, receiving an A in Honors and a 5 in AP Biology
