That course, and my subsequent three years of work at the writing center, has informed my current tutoring style. I am passionate about making students feel comfortable whi... Read more

Art, science... no matter what, don't forget technique.
I am an architect by trade, but architects are supposed to always be influenced by everything. From nature to art to science to sports, I have learned that keeping an open mind (and sometimes thinking too much) lets me be inspired at any moment and constantly grow. At the same time, I do not fall victim to whimsy--I value a strong work ethic and technique. In other words, working on HOW you do something is just as important as the end result. Looking back, my favorite teachers were those who... Read more

SAT, ACT, ISEE/SSAT, GMAT, MUSIC THEORY +
I believe that true vocation stems from a unique perspective on real opportunity for change in the world. Life has continually exposed me to inequalities in the education system for both minorities and people with disabilities.

I am committed to broadening the scope of academic measurement, and access to alternative education, to the end that full expression of one’s ... Read more
