Tutoring
With over 5 years of experience teaching math, science, ESL, and Spanish, I know exactly what it takes for students to stop struggling and start mastering. I bring proven strategies, expertise, and a genuine investment in every student's success — so they don't just pass, they build real confidence.
Experience
Private Tutoring
Remote & In Person
March 2024 – Present
With experience tutoring test prep, math, science, and ESL, I take a student-centered approach — guiding students toward their own understanding rather than simply providing answers. The result is lasting comprehension and confident, independent learners.
English and Science Education Volunteer
Peace Corps Costa Rica
March 2023 – May 2025
Teaching in Costa Rica gave me the unique opportunity to plan and instruct a course called "Science in English" - a course that blended science concepts with English vocabulary for elementary students. I also taught regular English classes, and became fluent in Spanish!

Troy Prep Charter School
August 2021 – March 2023
I taught 7th grade science and an advanced 8th grade biology course built around New York's Living Environment curriculum — guiding students all the way through to their Regents exam.
Math Teaching Fellow
Blueprint Schools Network
August 2020 – July 2021
I planned and taught small group (2-8 student) math classes to 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students completely online due to the COVID pandemic. I utilized with a variety of online math learning platforms such as Desmos and ALEKS.
