Teaching Method and Techniques:
My teaching approach is rooted in social justice pedagogy and critical inquiry. I strive to create inclusive, engaging, and reflective learning environments where students feel empowered to question, explore, and make meaningful connections between course material and their lived experiences. I use a mix of collaborative learning, multimedia resources, structured discussions, and writing-based strategies to encourage active participation and critical thinking. My methods emphasize accessibility, relationship-building, and cultivating a sense of shared responsibility for the learning space.
A Typical Lesson Plan:
A typical lesson begins with a short reflective prompt or warm-up activity that invites students to ground themselves and connect personally to the theme of the day. I introduce key concepts through a mix of media—readings, short videos, or case studies—followed by guided small-group work or pair discussions. We then come together as a full class to share insights and synthesize ideas. I usually close the session with an exit ticket or a brief writing activity to reinforce key takeaways and build toward ongoing assignments or projects.
What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
What sets me apart is my ability to build strong, supportive relationships with students while maintaining high expectations for critical engagement. I bring a collaborative, student-centered approach shaped by my work in education, research, and community-based programs. I’m attentive to each student’s unique learning style and goals, and I excel at making complex ideas accessible, relevant, and actionable. My background in interdisciplinary research and teaching allows me to connect big-picture ideas with practical skills and real-world applications.
Who the Lessons Are For:
My lessons are ideal for high school, undergraduate, and early graduate students in the humanities or social sciences—especially those engaging with topics related to education, communication, sociology, or social justice. I support students who are working on essays, preparing for exams, developing research projects, or simply looking to deepen their understanding of key concepts. Sessions are tailored to each learner’s goals, interests, and academic context.
