  • In all the roles that I have played so far in my life, two words sum all my experiences: lifelong learner.

About Me

As a lifelong learner, I am not only constantly learning about becoming the best teacher I can be, but also the best daughter, sister, partner, friend, etc. I want to be able to encourage others to then overcome obstacles that prevent them from being the best that they can be; sometimes, we all just need another person to talk to in order to process and find a solution for our struggles in life. I want to then help you become a better you!

Hobbies & Interests

I enjoy different forms of exercise, including biking, strength training, and yoga. I also enjoy going to different neighborhoods in the city to explore, enjoy, and appreciate foods from all different cultures. I am also starting to learn how to cook, so I try to use one new recipe a week in order to improve my cooking skills.

Q&A with Heleina

My teaching philosophy is that anyone can learn if they not only put in the effort, but also start at a comfortable level. Students need to work at a comfortable level because they will be able to review and understand material more, leaving fewer gaps in learning. Paired with constant encouragement, students can then continue to grow as learners.
