"I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Brigham Young University–Hawaii, where I graduated summa cum laude with a 3.95 GPA. I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Constitutional Government, Civics, and Law at Utah Valley University. My academic background has given me a strong foundation in critical thinking, research, writing, and communication, all of which are essential skills for tutoring.

My teaching experience includes serving as a university teaching assistant for the Political Science Department at BYU–Hawaii, where I supported up to 120 students at a time. I worked with students both in and outside of class to clarify concepts, improve writing, and prepare for exams. This role required me to adapt my explanations to different learning styles, ensuring that students could grasp complex ideas in ways that made sense to them. I also created a new grading and assignment system that emphasized concept mastery and incorporated student feedback, which helped improve engagement and academic performance.

I have worked with students from high school through university level, both one-on-one and in small groups, with a focus on writing skills, reading comprehension, political science, and study strategies. My approach is collaborative and student-centered, emphasizing active learning and critical analysis. I aim to build confidence alongside academic skills, helping students not only succeed in their current coursework but also develop tools they can use throughout their education." less...
