My greatest experience with teaching is likely just having a younger sister – we are two years apart and have a very close relationship. My mom teaches Preschool, my dad teaches high school/adult education, and I myself believe that the most impactful people in life are teachers that understand their students and lead a commendable example. Aside from tutoring primarily through Aristotle Circle, I spent a great deal of time writing/playing/listening to music. I'm passionate about music as well as academic exploration and will likely end up in a career that allows for interdisciplinary variance. Travel is a huge part of my life and I've enjoyed visiting family in the Philippines and performing with my orchestra in Prague and Vienna. Curiosity and worldly experience fuel my drive to become as educated as possible, and my desire to help others makes tutoring a natural outlet.
