I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Afro American Studies from Howard University, where I developed strong research, writing, and analytical skills that directly support my ability to tutor in areas such as English, history, and the social sciences. Throughout my undergraduate studies, I focused on topics involving critical thinking, cultural analysis, and effective communication—skills I have consistently applied in tutoring settings. My academic background equips me with a deep understanding of interdisciplinary concepts and a strong foundation in essay writing, source evaluation, and thematic synthesis.

While attending Howard, I served as a tutor with Raising a Village, a nonprofit organization that places college students in public schools throughout Washington, DC. In this role, I worked closely with elementary and middle school students, providing one-on-one and small group academic support in reading, writing, and math. I adapted lesson strategies to meet the unique needs of each student, focusing on building foundational skills and increasing academic confidence. My approach is student-centered and strengths-based, emphasizing patience, encouragement, and clear, practical instruction. These varied experiences have given me the flexibility and insight to work effectively with diverse learners in both classroom and informal educational settings.

African American Studies

African American Studies

I spent four years learning the discipline of Afro American Studies at Howard University. I learned the major themes of the discipline including the governance structure, the social structure, ways of knowing, meaning making, and movement and memory. I know about the history of the discipline including major people involved in the creation of the discipline and more general African American history.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

While tutoring local middle school students in DC Public Schools, I focused on explaining math skills needed for algebra. I helped students understand the basic concepts of solving for X, evaluating expressions, solving quadratics and visualizing equations on a graph. I have completed coursework myself in mathematics up to calculus so I have a firm grasp on basic algebra.
American History

American History

Throughout my education, I excelled at the subject of American history. Starting with the American Revolution, going through the Westward Expansion, the Industrial Revolution, the Civil War, Reconstruction, White Backlash, the Jim Crow Era, the Great Depression, through the Civil Rights Movement and the Era of Mass Incarceration to the present. I specialize in recent history, including the 1970’s forward, particularly the impact different policies from local to federal government had on black communities. If you are looking for an Afro American history expert, I would be happy to help.
Biology

Biology

I completed five biology courses while studying at Howard University. I know the basics of ecology, evolutionary biology and genetics along with basic biology principles. I can tutor up to high school biology subjects such as human biology, plant biology, ecology, and evolutionary biology.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

Throughout my college career, I took four writing courses along with three additional English courses where I learned how to write essays in the MLA format. I also took social sciences courses where I wrote in the APA format. I have experience writing both shorter and longer papers, researching topics, synthesizing primary sources and properly citing sources.
