Hi, I'm Krista! I graduated with distinction in Political Science and Ethnicity, Race, and Migration from Yale University and I am a Fulbright grantee. As a high school and college student, I was able to thrive with the mentorship and guidance of amazing teachers that made even the most difficult subjects approachable and interesting. As a tutor, I work with students to identify their difficulties, determine an achievable plan of action for improving, and make progress towards their goals.

I have over 5 years of tutoring experience, working with various grade levels and teaching different subjects. In 2017, I worked as a high school math tutor, focusing mainly on Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2. In college, I worked as a reading tutor to elementary school students for one year, a health education teacher to high school students for two years, a SAT and ACT prep tutor for six months, an English tutor for six months, and a Guitar teacher. After college, I was selected to teach English in Brazil for eight months with the Fulbright Commission. I taught various levels of English at the university level in Brazil and received my TOEFL certification. From my various experiences, I feel comfortable teaching in different environments. I have learned to approach teaching from a mindful, caring, and peer-to-peer perspective and I hope to work with students to develop their interests and passions for their studies.

Please feel free to reach out and I will respond quickly. I am always open to questions and introductory sessions where we can discuss your or your child's tutoring needs and how I can help!

Knowledgeable

Krista has the knowledge base to help my granddaughter in elementary math, the new Core math. She is very pleasant and patient. If my grand daughter can reduce her anxiety with math then that is a big step. Then she will grow in. her knowledge base. Kristas's clarity and patience is the pathway to get there.
