Louisa

 

Hi! My name is Louisa, and I am studying Public and International Affairs with a Spanish minor at Princeton University. I have been tutoring for over five years and enjoy working with students across a variety of subjects, including the humanities, languages, college essays, math, and science.

I have strong interpersonal skills, patience, and experience working with children and teens. I am well-versed in high school subjects and have a strong grasp of the foundational skills needed to achieve success in school.

During my time in high school, I spent many of my study halls tutoring students in subjects ranging from English and history to biology and geometry. I also worked as a teacher’s assistant in a class for students from around the world. In addition to helping them understand the material being taught, I supported them in communicating their thoughts in English. Over the years I worked with them, I developed a deep respect for their dedication and built a great deal of patience as an educator.

One of the most meaningful parts of tutoring for me has been the relationships I have formed with students. I still keep in contact with a few of them, and I cherish the memories we built together—often supported by donuts, waffles, and the occasional movie day. These experiences showed me that learning can be both challenging and joyful when students feel supported.

I hope to continue building meaningful connections with more students and help them grow in confidence and understanding. For me, one of the most gratifying parts of daily life is helping people improve their understanding of the world around them, both academically and personally.

When I’m not in the library, I love baking, making ceramics, and playing Spikeball with my friends.
