With a goal to continue on to a doctorate program in astrophysics. I was heavily involved in the peer tutoring program at my high school. Being a private school we were more like extra teachers than usual peer tutors. We helped with lesson plans, graded work, and tests. I even was involved in picking the new Algebra 2 Text Books for the school. As such I bring a unique look behind the curtain of high school education to my tutoring work. Through this program, I tutored Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, and Trigonometry for four years. I then went on to teach of all of the same at my high school's summer school program for three years. From there I attended and worked for City Year. City Year is a nonprofit sponsored by Americorps that provides extra support for students in low-income public schools around the country. In tutoring I believe in a fun and engaging real world look at subjects. I firmly believe that students who enjoy engaging with their subjects are much more likely to succeed. As a tutor, it is my job to help my students find subjects more engaging and more fun. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy Star Wars, cooking, and playing board games.

Star Wars. I love Star Wars. I also enjoy anime and gaming.
