I believe that education is the best, and sometimes only, way to level the playing field. I'm currently studying to be an elementary teacher and love working with students of all ages.

I am excited to get the opportunity to continue this work through varsity tutors!

...where my professor engaged me with the material and encouraged students to think critically about not just calculus, but math as a field of study. I started questioning the world around me, and slowly began to piece together the relevance of the knowledge I had accumulated over the past 12 years.

Efficiency is the value I hold dearest. Rather than tutor for the sake of hours, I hope to spend my time and the time of my clients effectively. I aim to not only improve test scores, but to set students up so they may efficiently study without a tutor.

...subjects including SAT and ACT prep, Algebra, Calculus, Biology, and Chemistry. I then worked in a neuro-psychiatry laboratory before starting medical school in Kansas City. Throughout my lengthy education I have taken several courses on each of the subject that I tutor and have taken quite a few standardized exams.

...my students. I want them to succeed and feel confident in their knowledge. As a tutor, and as a student who once needed a tutor, I understand the frustration and humiliation that comes with doing poorly in a subject. I pride myself on being able to communicate with my students on a deeper level so I know exactly what they need from me, and how to cater to their needs specifically. I try to keep...
