Passionate Educator with Youth & College Tutoring Exp.

Miracle M.

I am recently graduated with a dual Master’s degree in Social Work and Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, Newark, where I held a 3.6 GPA. I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice with minors in Psychology and Africana Studies from Rutgers University, New Brunswick. Additionally, I completed the 19-credit Leadership Scholars Certificate Program through the Institute for Women's Leadership. My educational background has sharpened my communication, critical thinking, and leadership skills—foundations I bring into my tutoring and mentorship roles.

I have direct tutoring experience as an Africana Studies Tutor at Rutgers University, where I met weekly with assigned students to help them understand course material and build effective study strategies. My teaching style is supportive and adaptive—I prioritize building strong rapport with students, creating a comfortable environment where they feel encouraged to ask questions and engage deeply with the material. I incorporate active listening, critical inquiry, and real-life connections to make learning both relevant and empowering.

My experience spans a range of teaching contexts, including one-on-one tutoring, small group facilitation, and classroom support. I’ve worked with children in preschool settings as a Teacher’s Aide at Rutgers Psychology Child Development Center and the YMCA, as well as with adolescents and college-aged students in mentoring and advocacy roles. My work in both educational and social service settings has made me particularly attuned to the emotional and academic needs of diverse learners.
