Bio

I am a talented tutor who has excellent communication and leadership skills! I am dedicated to helping individual students exceed potential and achieve success.

I aim to build student self-confidence by working in stages of their problems conceptually. I use positive reinforcement techniques and make tutoring sessions entertaining to hold interest and encourage learning. I support students by identifying and addressing their specific concerns. Most importantly I am compassionate to students as I understand their struggles as a student myself.

Education

• 2016 - 2020 Graduated Secaucus High school (GPA: 3.985)
• 2020 - present BS in Biology (Rutgers University - New Brunswick)
• highlighted coursework: Expository writing, General Chemistry 1, Calculus

My Proudest
Achievements

• One of my proudest achievements is receiving my black belt in martial arts after years as an instructor to students from the ages of 4-15. That certification drove my students to work harder to achieve their goals as I did with mine. Another achievement I am proud of is my acceptance to Rutgers.
