Hiiiiiiii! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Thank you for stopping by to learn more about me. I grew up in Ghana and lived there until I moved to the US for college. I love music and have a tendency to sing a lot more than one would expect. I also enjoy reading autobiographies; they provide a window into other people’s culture, upbringing, and adventures, while leaving room for me to imagine their experiences.

I love tutoring because I am a product of excellent teaching. Since middle school, my life has been heavily shaped by teachers who were passionate, patient, kind, intelligent, and saw the best in me regardless of my performance. Tutoring provides a means for me to share the joy of learning with other students.

I look forward to meeting you! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
