Yale Graduate Tutor of Humanities, Math and the Arts

I am passionate about education and my aim as a tutor is to help every student discover the joy of learning.

I graduated from Yale University with a BA in Art and continued to earn my Master's in Performance Design in London. During this time, I not only honed my skills as an artist and designer, I took courses in math, literature, English, history, art history, and the social sciences to supplement my interests. I especially love reading and writing and would love to help students develop these very essential skills. I am patient and supportive and believe that building confidence and a strong work ethic are the first steps in helping students reach their full potential.

If you are looking for a fun and engaging extracurricular activity, I am also an excellent teacher of drawing, painting, and puppet theatre.

I look forward to working with you!

English

English has always been one of my favorite subjects and have always loved reading and writing. I earned a 5 on the AP Literature Test in high school and went on to take many English classes at Yale. I love helping students really understand and analyze what they read and use writing to express themselves more clearly and effectively.

Theatre

I have a Master's in Performance Design and Practice from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, UK. There, I studied methods of developing a play or performance piece from writing to directing to designing. As an undergraduate at Yale, I took literature and theatre studies courses, which taught me to read plays closely to understand their themes, meanings and develop them from page to stage.

Drawing

I took private drawing/painting classes from age 8 until 18. I then took many drawing courses as an art major at Yale. My experience involves everything from traditional observational and figure drawing classes, to creative color drawing classes and more abstract techniques. I have been teaching assistant to drawing students age 5-12.

Painting

I took private painting lessons from age 11-18. I then majored in studio art with a concentration in painting from Yale University, from which I graduated with distinction in the major. I have experience in working with watercolor, acrylic and oil and in both realistic observational and more abstract painting techniques. I especially love to help students develop their own voice and style through their use of paint.
