• When and why did you develop an interest in your chosen field?

  I developed an interest in tutoring when I first started working in a tutoring company in Edmonton. That was my first experience tutoring in 2019. Since then, I've enjoyed every interaction I've had with my students and taken great joy in seeing them improve!

• What makes you passionate about your subject?

  I think what makes me passionate about Math and Science is the fact that when I was doing them the first time around, not a lot made sense so I had to adapt and come up with simple strategies. Now its become enjoyable because I see patterns in the numbers and trends in Science.

• What do you like about tutoring? What makes you a "Superprof"?

  What I enjoy the most about tutoring is seeing the "aha" moment in my students when I am able to explain something that they didn't previously understand. The second comes when my students send me a message and let me know about how they made the mark cutoff for a scholarship or the next course they wanted to take. What makes me a Superprof is that I listen to students' concerns and where they are having trouble understanding and cater my teaching style to their needs. I also like to keep parents fully engaged in the tutoring process so they're able to see measurable progress.

• Do you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you? Please explain.

  A couple of my role models are my mom, who taught me to always work hard and never give up, and my grade 10 science teacher who taught me learning can be so much fun!
