"With a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Criminal Justice from Rutgers University, graduating Summa Cum Laude with a 3.89 GPA, I bring a strong academic foundation to my role as a tutor. My studies equipped me with expertise in social sciences, statistics, and foundational math and English for K-8 students. Additionally, my background in research and data analysis strengthens my ability to simplify complex topics and adapt lessons to individual needs.

For three years, I served as a peer advisor, guiding students through academic planning, goal setting, and skill-building. This role taught me how to connect with students from diverse backgrounds, provide personalized support, and help them navigate academic challenges with confidence. I also honed my mentoring skills as Treasurer of the Criminal Justice Honor Society, collaborating with peers to organize events and workshops that engaged students in learning beyond the classroom. These experiences have equipped me with the ability to foster a supportive environment where students feel empowered to ask questions and grow.

As a recent graduate, I have a unique perspective on the challenges today’s students face, including balancing academics, extracurriculars, and standardized tests. My fresh experience enables me to connect with learners, offering practical advice on navigating these pressures while helping them approach academic challenges with confidence and clarity.

I am deeply committed to creating a positive and engaging learning experience for each student. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, encouragement, and personalized instruction, helping students build both their knowledge and confidence. Whether mastering a difficult concept or developing effective study strategies, I am dedicated to equipping my students with the tools they need to succeed academically and beyond." less...
