Hobbies
Online tutoring for writing available. I take my teaching philosophy with me whenever I tutor: I never underestimate what my students can accomplish; I strive to create a productive and welcoming environment that encourages creativity and exciting ideas; and while helping students with specific assignments or concepts, I guide them toward establishing helpful habits such as creating a work schedule/routine, taking initiative in their scholastic and professional lives, and confidently presenting well-developed and well-articulated ideas.
