I am currently studying education and child development at Roosevelt University in Chicago, building on mathematics and education coursework completed at Malcolm X College. My academic background has given me a strong understanding of child development, learning strategies, and mathematics instruction.

I have several years of experience tutoring and teaching students in grades 2–8 in one-on-one, small-group, and classroom settings. Since 2023, I have worked as a math tutor through Chicago Public Schools programs, including MSTAR Math and Tutor Corps, helping students develop practical math skills through engaging lessons and guided practice. In 2025, I taught math at Midtown Center for Boys, leading activities and lessons for students in grades 3–8.

In addition, I have provided private tutoring since 2024, creating individualized learning plans for students needing support in mathematics, including algebra and geometry. My volunteer experience at Midtown Center for Boys and Erie House has also allowed me to assist students with homework, academic enrichment, and ESL support.

My teaching approach focuses on adapting instruction to individual learning styles, connecting concepts to real-world situations, and building student confidence. As a bilingual English and Spanish speaker, I can effectively communicate with diverse learners and families. Through my tutoring, teaching, and volunteer experiences, I have developed strong communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills that help students succeed academically and gain confidence in their abilities.

Approved Subjects

Discrete Math

Discrete Math

I have experience tutoring middle school and high school students in mathematics, including logical reasoning, problem-solving, patterns, and mathematical thinking that form the foundation of discrete mathematics. Through my work with Chicago Public Schools programs, private tutoring, and classroom instruction, I have helped students break down complex problems into smaller, manageable steps and develop critical thinking skills. My approach emphasizes real-world applications, clear explanations, and building confidence in mathematical reasoning. As an education student at Roosevelt University, I combine strong mathematical knowledge with effective teaching strategies to help students understand challenging concepts and succeed academically.
United States History

United States History

As a History minor at Roosevelt University, I have developed a strong understanding of United States history, including the nation's political, social, economic, and cultural development. My coursework has strengthened my research, analytical, and historical writing skills while providing in-depth knowledge of key events, movements, and figures that have shaped American society. I enjoy helping students connect historical events to modern issues and encouraging critical thinking through the analysis of primary and secondary sources. My goal is to make history engaging, understandable, and relevant while helping students improve their academic performance and appreciation for the subject.
