With over three (3) plus of dedicated experience in tutoring English literature, I have developed a strong ability to engage students with diverse literary works and critical analysis. Having taken Advanced Placement (AP) classes in English, I possess a deep understanding of the curriculum and the skills necessary to help students excel in different areas of their coursework. My approach emphasizes not only comprehension but also the appreciation of literary elements such as theme, character development, and narrative structure, fostering a love for literature in my students. I encourage students through our lesson schedule to ensure each student gains confidence and proficiency in their skills.

In addition to my expertise in English literature, I bring over four (4) years of experience in vocal music classes, having taken Choir for my whole high school career, rising up the ranks and becoming the Soprano section leader, as well as taking Music Theory, all proving a well-rounded educational background. As Section Leader, I was responsible for guiding my section and focusing on technique, blend, volume, and overall keeping the section on task and sounding good.

This unique combination of skills enables me to offer a holistic approach to education, encouraging students to draw parallels between different forms of art and develop a multifaceted understanding of their subjects. With a passion for teaching and a commitment to student success, I am dedicated to helping each learner reach their full potential.

Voice (Music)

Voice (Music)

As section leader, I made it a point to guide my students, tell them what parts they needed work on, make sure our blend was in unison, along with our harmonies being up to par. It was also my job, a section leader, to learn the other sections parts, to make sure that the harmonies were being followed within all sections, and to keep other sections harmonies in mind while we were doing our sectionals. On top of the hands on experience of being a section leader, I took a music theory course which was a very rigorous rewarding class, which helped me understand more deeply music as a whole; which including dynamics, vocal range, note orders, key signatures, and note names, as well as vocal harmonies within a song.
