Career Experience

I am an academic at heart! I was the editor-in-chief for my university's Philosophy departmental journal for two years, after serving as co-editor for two years prior. I have 5 years' experience in tutoring at my university and privately. Alongside tutoring, I have extensive experience in editing and reviewing academic essays, and I am currently preparing to defend my PhD in the coming months.

I Love Tutoring Because

it’s about creating a space where students feel supported, encouraged, and confident to grow. I see tutoring as an opportunity to nurture critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills that empower students far beyond the classroom. My tutoring philosophy is grounded in patience and genuine care for each student I work with. Above all, I find great joy in helping students discover and strengthen their own voice in their writing.

Other Interests
