Hello, I’m Star! I am a first year law student at UCI Law, where I hope to pursue a career in Entertainment or Sports Law. I previously graduated with a double major in Psychology and Criminology at UCI in just three years.

My tutoring journey began when I was nine years old, helping my little sister understand basic math and spelling. I have since expanded my clientele, and have been tutoring students from K-12 since 2022. I specialize in writing, English, and Psychology, however I also have experience tutoring elementary level math and grammar.

My goal is to support students on their educational journey through a positive, engaging environment that is conducive to learning. Each student learns and understands the material differently and every individual has different goals for their learning. With that in mind, my approach to tutoring is specifically tailored to each of my students. I look forward to meeting with you and hearing more about your tutoring needs. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!

Star is a great tutor!

Star helped me repair a crochet blanket. I know how to crochet, but have only used patterns. No freestyle crocheting. Star prepped for the session, helped me start the repair (it took 1.5 days!!!), and was so kind and friendly. Very satisfied with my first experience on this site. Thanks so much!
