Tutoring Experience

In my time at Princeton University, I dedicated myself to teaching English as a Second Language to diverse communities in Trenton, NJ. Each week, I planned and executed personalized English lessons for Spanish and Haitian Kreyol speakers, focusing not just on language skills but also on building strong, supportive relationships with my students. My approach to tutoring is deeply influenced by my commitment to social justice and educational equity, making each session not only educational but also empowering. Through my research and leadership roles, I've developed a keen ability to engage and inspire, ensuring that learning is both effective and enjoyable.

Tutoring Approach

My tutoring approach is deeply personalized and interactive, focusing on understanding each student's unique needs and learning style. I believe in fostering an inclusive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable to express themselves and ask questions. Drawing from my extensive research and advocacy work, I integrate real-world examples to make lessons more relevant and engaging. I emphasize critical thinking and problem-solving, skills that are essential beyond the classroom. My goal is not just to teach but to inspire a love for learning and a deeper understanding of the subject matter, all while supporting my students' overall growth and confidence.
