Education

Experience
I received Department Honors for Academic Excellence in Mathematics from the Chairman of the Math Department at CUNY City College, where I graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. I'm a multilingual and multicultural tutor with over seven years of teaching experience in both the United States and abroad, so I have the experience to help students of all ages succeed in a variety of courses.I am a passionate tutor and teacher, and through the years, I have honed my communication skills and learned a great deal about the psychology of the student. This helps me discover each student's academic needs and optimal learning style, so I can tailor my teaching techniques to meet the student's needs. Instead of simply giving the student the answers, I lead the student through questions and discussions in order to instill a deeper understanding of the concepts we are working on. I also use the Suzuki method when the situation is appropriate. I'm able to tutor students from elementary schoolers to college students in subjects including algebra, calculus, geometry, trigonometry, finite mathematics, reading, writing, and public speaking, among many others, and can assist students who are taking IB-level mathematics classes. I am also able to help students prepare for the ACT, SAT, and SSAT. In my spare time, I enjoy playing a variety of different musical instruments, volunteering, and running.
