Experience
I’m a driven and enthusiastic educator, and I’ve been working with young people for more than four years in schools, homes, and summer camps. Most recently, I was a tutor for Lewis & Clark College (from which I graduated in 2015), helping students with coursework in Classical Greek and Latin through the 202 level. I've also worked as a German Tutor at Lewis & Clark, an ESL classroom tutor at Jackson Middle School in Portland, OR, an in home tutor and caregiver for a family in the Portland area, and a camp leader at AYF: Merrowvista in New Hampshire for two summers. Here are my SAT and ACT scores: SAT WR 640 SAT CR 740 SAT Math 680 SAT Composite 2060 Reading - ACT 30 Science Reasoning-ACT 26 MATH - ACT 28 ENGLISH - ACT 34 ACT Composite 30 Teaching and learning are my passions: luckily for me, the best way to learn is to teach. I came to this understanding in the Fall of my Freshman year at Lewis & Clark, when I enrolled in a class called "Education in a Complex World." Nothing had ever been more gratifying that using the lessons I learned in class while tutoring ESL students at a nearby middle school, and then using what I learned while tutoring to come to a better understanding of what I was learning in class. It's my hope that I can continue learning and teaching for the rest of my life.

Hobbies
When I'm not reading about Classical and Renaissance literature and history, I enjoy cooking, translating Greek and Latin, going on bike rides, playing badminton, and going to the St. Louis central library, which always brings me peace and joy.
