Hobbies

Though I like reading and writing analytically, I love teaching and tutoring. I am patient, motivating, and I understand how difficult school can be for students; I aim to remind my students that learning reaches beyond test scores. In my personal life, I like traveling and learning about languages, particularly words that can't be translated into English.
