Hi all, My name’s Kayla and I’m a current undergraduate at Harvard College studying Neuroscience and English. I’m originally from Anchorage, Alaska. I’ve lived there for about eight years, but before that my family and I moved all around the US due to my father’s military service. I’ve been tutoring primarily math and English for about four years now, and I love it! Tutoring is the perfect flexible job for me as a busy college student. In my free time I write for publications on campus (The Harvard Crimson and The Harvard Independent), work in theater production, read fantasy novels, and get outside whenever possible via camping, hiking, swimming, kayaking, rollerblading, and more. I also ride horses for the Harvard Polo Team. I’m very flexible with scheduling and teaching style and look forward to working with new students!
