"I graduated from UC Berkeley with a BS in Molecular Toxicology and have been tutoring for over 15 years. Along the way, I also became a Nurse Practitioner, which has only reinforced my belief in patience, clarity, and meeting people where they’re at.

What I’ve learned is that real teaching isn’t just presenting material — it’s slowing down, checking for understanding, and making sure every detail clicks. I’m laid-back in my sessions because I want students to feel comfortable, but I’m also organized and thorough so they walk away confident. Before tests, I often create mock exams so nothing on test day feels like a surprise.

Most of my students are in middle and high school, and I specialize in Pre-algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, Chemistry, Biology, and Writing. Many of my students stay with me for years — not just because their grades improve, but because they feel supported and actually enjoy the process of learning." less...
