I was born and raised in Northern Italy, in the mountains, in a place where most people actually speak German. No, I don't have an accent, because my father is American and so I was raised bilingually from birth speaking German and English at home. Later of course I learnt Italian and then I studied Latin, French in high school as well. I've always been passionate about learning languages, and when I was into something, learning was easy for me and I enjoyed it.I graduated from the University of Innsbruck (Austria) with a MA in English and a minor in Spanish. After graduating, I worked in linguistic research and then decided to get a TEFL certificate to teach English as a foreign language. I moved from Italy to Prague and spent about a year teaching EFL there to private clients, both adults and kids as well as a class in high school. That's when I realized that teaching is my calling, my thing. I moved back to Italy to teach EFL in high school and middle school for 2.5 years, before moving to Detroit to get my MA in education at the University of Michigan Flint. Since 2019, I have been working as a teacher in public schools, and I am passionate about helping students. I believe that we all are learners and teachers. all of us are readers and writers. I have the ability to share my passion for learning with others, and one of my greatest strengths is building relationships with students which is the corner stone to successful learning and teaching. I believe that there are no bad kids or bad students, it's just that we all have different paths and ways of learning, we all have a different pace. As a teacher i strive to acknowledge that and find ways to support all students, adapting to their needs and paths, meeting them where they are at. It is my job to believe in every single student and help them believe in themselves. When I am not teaching or engaging with students, I like to read, walk, hike, travel, explore, work out, watch my favorite shows. I enjoy playing and watching ice hockey, and I try to go home to visit my family in Italy once a year.

In 2017, I completed by Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan.After graduation, I worked as an engineering consultant specializing in mechatronics and aerodynamic testing. In addition to consulting, I was a professional triathlete where I competed at Olympic Trials and earned a silver medal at a World Cup. Last Fall, I started a Master's in Robotics at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. I'm passionate about using technology to improve people's lives, not to simply make their lives "easier". I pride myself as being extremely curious and always excited to dive deep into the weeds. I'm excited to share and foster that same passion in other students.

I'm here to help you! My job as a tutor is to help provide the knowledge and skills to become an independent learner and get students thinking about what they need to do to be successful. I love to have a relationship with my students that makes them feel comfortable so that they can ask the questions they need ot ask in order to become a better student. Lots of students have anxiety, and I specialize in alleviating anxiety in order to help students to be at their best for the big test!

I am a lifelong learner, and I hope to share that mindset while tutoring. I believe that any subject can be interesting as long as your approach it with an open, optimistic mind.

Every single student is different. And all have unlimited potential for growth and improvement. No matter what grades they are getting or what interests they have. Sometimes - often - it takes spending adequate time looking for unique approaches that meet the student where they are. Where school classrooms have to teach a whole class full of students - my role is to determine what YOU need and what works for YOU.

I believe there is a fine line between teaching and learning. I good teacher will learn from his/her student and vice versa. I also strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for my students, so they are not afraid to make mistakes, learn from their mistakes and take chances.

Surrounded by a beautiful garden, a tranquil water fountain sings in the background as I lounge in the warm Iranian air sipping coffee. Some days, I savor the quiet atmosphere of this tiny oasis, yet on other days, I relish the company of my German-speaking friends as we linger at the caf eating my favorite, cold German potato salad, bantering for hours about culture and politics. Absorbed in my work as a dentist in a flourishing practice, I craved a new opportunity to challenge my mind and grow. At first, learning to speak German was a way to communicate with an innovator in dentistry that I admired and one day hoped to meet, Professor, Gotz Siebert of Germany. However, daily studies for over a year turned into more than a professional and creative outlet, it became a way to connect with people in my life and the world.But before my restless energy discovered a love for German language, I was an enthusiastic dental student. Born into a family of physicians, my interest in healthcare came naturally. However, my grandparents' influence had the biggest impact on my passion for learning. As a boy, I spent much of my time with my grandparents. Both compassionate nurturers, they cared for me and taught valuable life lessons. Retired from the U.S. Embassy in Iran, my grandparents had witnessed a swift shift in political climate during the Iranian Revolution and the country's upheaval of many educational freedoms. From this, bloomed a lesson that instilled my intense passion for learning. And with this passion, I discovered an interest in dentistry after watching my sister's life-changing transformation from orthodontic treatment.As a high achieving student, I was easily accepted into dental school, which was one of the best times of my life. I learned from experts and was challenged by professors who gave me a chance to assist with research that spawned the writing of three additional papers and molded my career trajectory. In partnership with two fellow dental students, I took on a project to create Iran's first system for treatment of cleft lip and palate that became highly regarded as a standard by the Iranian's Ministry of Health. While this was a major accomplishment, I continued to advance my scholarly contributions to the field with additional papers and the translation of a book on fixed prosthodontics. Over the course of dental school, I developed a fascination with complex aesthetic and orthodontic dentistry that involved the relationship between bone structures, teeth, and gums as well as a drive to continue building my proficiency.After graduating in the top 1%, I spent the first two years of my career completing my obligations with the government as a military dentist. By the time I fulfilled my service, I was also managing my own private practice. Responsible for making decisions and caring for my patients challenged me to ensure the best outcome for patients. But, as my practice grew, so did the complexity of my cases. Although I was a visiting scholar for one-month in oral and maxillofacial surgery and attended residency seminars in orthodontics, I realized that many of my patients needed more advanced dental care that I had yet to master. Wanting to expand my learning, particularly in implants and full-mouth rehabilitation of the teeth and gums, I visited a colleague in the U.S. For three months, I assisted with treatments, learned about technology, and observed the profession. Excited about what I could achieve in the U.S., I applied for a post-doctoral program.As a post-doctoral student in the Department of Periodontics and Oral Medicine at the University of Michigan, I have diversified my background in dentistry and patient management skills through the Hospital Elder Life Program. In addition to assisting with patient treatments and attending lectures with residents, I am conducting research. I am the co-author of a study on sonography for periodontal tissue imaging and another on maxillary sinus elevation. I am also conducting a review on the stability of occlusion in class-3 malocclusion. This post-doctoral program has been a great opportunity for me to explore dentistry in more depth and has enhanced my inquiry skills as they relate to my future goals.
