Tell us about yourself!
I am a math major, senior, and I tutor most math classes in Math Science Tutoring Center.
What else do you do on campus?
I’ve also been a TA for the math department for about 4 years.
Why did you get involved with the Academic Success Center?
My very first semester, I got involved with some study groups for my class and then I realized that I really enjoyed helping people get up to speed and let it click for them. Also my professor recommended me to do it.
Why do you love your job
I love when the students get it, you know? You can see the little switch go in their brain. I also love hearing the success stories and that they get it or they passed the class. I love the relationships I build with people who return to the MASTC and how we get to see them throughout the semester.
Ideal pizza and why?
BBQ chicken pizza because marinara sauce is overrated.
There you have it! If you need help in Math, make sure you check out online tutoring through the Academic Success Center!
