Private tutor in Brookline, MA
Education
My love of teaching stems from my passion for learning, and desire to ignite the same passion in others! With discipline and drive, I have successfully gained admissions to the top universities and graduate programs of the U.S., and the world. I graduated Phi Beta Kappa and with Highest Honors from the University of California, Berkeley, and completed my Masters at Harvard Medical School. I have over 12 years of tutoring and teaching experiences in California, Massachusetts, and the District of Columbia, both in a classroom setting, as well as in small groups and on a one-on-one basis.
Experience
I have taught a variety of subjects including ESL, writing, science/health, college prep and study skills, and with various audiences from middle school-aged children to college students and working adults. I meet my students where they are at. I leverage the skills of my students, work with them to find out how they best learn ie visual, auditory, tactile, or a combination of these learning modalities, and tailor the lessons and teaching approaches to these learning styles. I work with my students to set short- and long-term goals, to make sure that we are able to come up with a personalized plan that sets up my students for success.
