I strongly believe that the best way to teach a student is to adapt to their needs and that in order to best teach you have to not just work with them but also try to connect with them. I've worked as a teaching assistant for the Center for Gifted Youth out of LIU Post for 4 years as well as a tutor for LIU Post in both French and Mathematics. I now hold a position as a Substitute Teacher for the NYC Department of Education and have worked with students ranging from Pre-K to 8th grade. I earned my B.S. in Mathematics from LIU Post where I was able to work closely with professors to create a program that best fit my needs, for example, adjusting my classes to challenge myself. My favorite subject to tutor is Mathematics because I see math as a language that is very straightforward, although I understand that not everyone feels the same, and I strive to help others at the very least feel comfortable understanding the material.

I enjoy reading, and am always looking for recommendations. I also like to create art, experimenting with different styles and mediums, although working with graphite and acrylic is what I love the most. I spend a lot of my time cultivating and nurturing my relationships with people as I believe that having a strong and supportive community is a necessary foundation for success.
