"I hold a B.S. in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation and a Master’s of Research in Science, with additional Ph.D. coursework in anthropology and evolution. My field and research experience across biology and psychology has led to publications in peer-reviewed journals, NSF funding, and a post-graduate teaching certificate. These experiences have strengthened my ability to explain complex ideas clearly and connect learning to the real world.

I’ve worked with learners of all ages as a university teaching assistant, science outreach educator, and tutor independently and through professional tutoring companies. I develop customized lessons adapted to each student’s goals, interests, and learning style.

My teaching philosophy centers on curiosity and active, student-centered learning. I help students think critically and “learn how to learn,” so they gain confidence and independence across subjects.

I offer one-on-one tutoring, group sessions, and homeschool support in writing, executive function, natural and social sciences, ESL, and nature journaling, along with detailed editing and writing feedback. I also provide tracked revisions to help students strengthen their writing and research projects." less...
