"Being neurodivergent, learning was a struggle until I found a teacher who recognized it and taught to my strengths. I try to do the same for every student I encounter. I have my bachelor's degree in psychology, and a special interest in a variety of other subjects. I have volunteered as a Mentor and worked as a Special Education Teaching Assistant working with academically at-risk elementary school students. When working with students, I ask open-ended questions in an attempt to develop critical thinking skills, comprehensive listening skills, and encourage them to seek the answer themselves.
