Current Law Student and Former English/ESL Teacher

I am a current second-year law student at Temple University, focusing on public interest, criminal defense, and prisoners' rights. As part of the legal profession, I spend a lot of time doing doing research, writing and speaking publicly. Accordingly, I have a strong grasp of proofreading, editing, and grammar. I also occasionally work as a Spanish translator and interpreter for various pro bono organizations.

I am a former middle school English and ESL teacher. I worked in rural South Korea, among students with extreme limited English proficiency. My philosophy on teaching focuses on incorporating target language materials, such as films, music, literature, TV programs, and outdoor activities. I believe students learn best when they're enjoying and watching themselves grow, and I try to get students outside of the classroom to have real-world interactions as much as possible (whether it be watching opening/closing statements in the courtroom, or having a conversation with a native Spanish speaker).

Sessions are tailored to your personal goals and needs (professional, test preparation, vacation planning, etc.).

Writing

As a current law student, a majority of my coursework requires ingesting vast amount of materials and putting them into coherent, succinct writings. Every day is an opportunity for me to perfect my writing- whether it be writing case briefs, drafting motions, or writing intra-office memos.

Outside of my legal work, I also worked as a middle school English teacher in Asia. I specifically focused on grammar.

I also have experience with grant writing and journalistic writing... Read More

Swimming

I began training as a competitive swimmer when I was 7. When I was 10 I made my first regional team, and when I was 12 my first national team. I swam competitively into my college years, until I had a sports injury that required multiple surgeries.

During high school I also worked as a lifeguard, and as the Swim/Pool Director at a summer camp. In this capacity I managed other swim instructors, created swim plans, and taught lessons to children aged 4-15.

Public Speaking

As a current law student, with a focus on litigation, I have received extensive public speaking training and have strong skills. I am also a leader in my community which requires speaking in front of various audiences. Previously, I was a middle school English teacher which required me speaking in front of classrooms and entire school staff/faculty.

Criminal Justice

I am a current second-year law student, with a focus on criminal justice and litigation. I worked last summer and this current semester with the Federal Defenders, and will be working this upcoming summer with the Public Defenders. In my coursework, I have taken Criminal Law I, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, as well as Trial Advocacy classes and various other criminal justice classes.
