In my teaching philosophy, I prioritize student engagement, personalized learning, and fostering meaningful relationships to create an enjoyable and effective learning environment. I believe in breaking down complex problems into digestible chunks and drawing parallels to real-life scenarios to enhance understanding. My approach involves explaining content from various perspectives and approaches, catering to different learning styles and preferences. During a typical session, I begin by assessing the student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning style preferences. I then tailor the session accordingly, incorporating interactive discussions, visual aids, and hands-on activities to reinforce concepts. I adapt my teaching techniques based on the student's response and feedback, ensuring that each session is productive and engaging. By building a rapport with my students and creating a supportive atmosphere, I strive to instill confidence and enthusiasm for learning while helping them achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience
With a robust background in tutoring friends and family, I've seamlessly transitioned into professional tutoring during my high school years. I firmly believe in the mutual benefit of tutoring, where both the student and the tutor grow together. Specializing in math, college counseling, Spanish, writing, test preparation, physics, and chemistry, I've refined my expertise through extensive practice and study. I have experience working with students of all age ranges and learning styles, ensuring personalized support for each individual. Additionally, I'm proud to have received recognition for my academic achievements, including awards for math and science, such as the Rensselaer Medal for Excellence in Math and Science. With a SAT score of 1500, I bring both academic excellence and a passion for teaching to every tutoring session.
