Summary
In my twelve years experience of both teaching and tutoring, I have worked with students with a wide variety of learning needs as well as cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.
I pride myself for promoting a judgment-free learning environment while upholding rigor in a fun, interactive setting so that all students feel comfortable in my classroom.
As a Sacramento native and former Cosumnes River College student, I strive to play a part in the safe and diverse learning environment that community college campuses are known to offer. It is my hope that my educational background and varied teaching experiences (both virtually and in-person) will be a good fit for the needs of your department.
