Teaching & Mentoring Experience
I began tutoring at age 16 while in high school, providing mathematics and French tutoring for approximately 5 hours per week. A year later, I also started teaching German to Syrian refugees. During my undergraduate studies at Yale and my MSc at Oxford, I continued tutoring, with a focus on German language support and academic mentoring. Currently, I teach approximately 15 hours per week, offering French, Italian, and German language tutoring, as well as English academic and essay writing support for secondary school, university-level students and professionals.
