My educational foundation includes a Bachelor's degree in Art History and Architecture from Southwestern University, complemented by certificates in teaching English as a second language and UX design. I have several years of experience tutoring in-person and remotely, and have completed specialized training in learning disabilities and differentiated instruction techniques. Additionally, I maintain professional development through ongoing workshops in educational technology integration and pedagogical approaches.
My tutoring experience spans over five years, beginning during my undergraduate studies when I worked as a peer tutor in the university's earning center. This role introduced me to working with diverse learning styles and adapting explanations to meet individual student needs. After graduation, I transitioned to private tutoring, where I have worked primarily with middle and high school students aged 12 through 18, focusing on history, English, German, and art history. My approach emphasizes building conceptual understanding rather than memorization, using visual aids, real-world applications, and step-by-step problem-solving strategies.
The majority of my tutoring has been conducted in one-on-one settings, either online or in public libraries, allowing for highly personalized instruction tailored to each student's specific challenges and goals. I have also facilitated small group sessions of three to four students and volunteered with the local community center's art center for two years. Throughout this experience, I have developed expertise in identifying knowledge gaps, creating customized practice materials, and communicating complex concepts in accessible ways that resonate with students of varying abilities and backgrounds.
