I love teaching and mentoring, simply because I feel like I can have a tangible impact in one’s life by making things clearer, easier to understand, and most importantly meaningful and relevant to the student(s) I’m working with. I’ve been lucky to have worked with a wide variety of students. I’ve taught inmates at the Bordentown Prison and Ph.D students who brought in their dissertations at the Princeton Writing Center. No student is the same, and hence over the years, I’ve learned that my teaching/tutoring style shouldn’t be the same for every student either. I genuinely enjoy the mentorship aspect of the tutoring relationship and hope to work with my students in developing a skill set that can be utilized in any academic environment. I just spent this past semester abroad in Cape Town where I studied education policy and worked with elementary students. They were certainly very different from the students I work with here in Princeton!
