Bio
My teaching philosophy centers on hands-on, project-based, and skills-focused learning that connects knowledge to real-world application. I provide targeted feedback that celebrates strengths and identifies growth areas, while tailoring lessons to align with standards, individual goals, and unique learning styles. As a tutor, my mission is to transform learning into an engaging adventure where curiosity thrives and knowledge sticks. I infuse enthusiasm and creativity base on student interest into every session. Beyond teaching, I enjoy nature hikes, yoga, and ziplining. I’m passionate about travel and fascinated by AI and machine learning. As a lifelong chocolate lover, I also have a soft spot for Halloween! I’m excited about the future of education and technology, and I’m committed to preparing learners to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital world. Let’s embark on this journey of discovery together!
