Bio

About

I’m a college student from Mexico, currently in my last year for a degree in actuarial sciences. I’m good with numbers. I love mathematics and statistics, as well as computer science.
Aside from exact sciences matters, I’m passionate about social matters too, specially gender equality and feminism. My goal in life is to know and listen to people’s needs and wishes for a life worth living. I want to spread love through the dedication, effort and quality of my work. I want my actions to stand out, but not just to feel better about myself, but to be a beacon of hope for people to join and be part of solutions for everyone. I want to make the world a better place.
I consider the stage of my life I’m currently in a period for personal growth and a lot of learning and acceptance. Right now, my biggest acomplishment is deciding to chase big dreams, even when doubt and fear creep sometimes. Life is not about never being scared or down, it is about keeping on moving through everything. This is why I’m excited to join the SBC community. I’m excited to explore bigger possibilities and expand my world learning from everyone in the community.

Teaching

Teaching experience

In the past, I have tutored my peers in Mathematics and English. Also, I worked as an instructor at a Kumon Center.

Teaching philosophy and method

I think the most important thing when teaching, is giving your students confidence. What makes a lesson memorable to someone, no matter the topic, is the lingering memory of having felt motivated. When teaching, it has to feel personal; there has to be a connection. Mutual care and learning is one of the most satisfying fruits of the teaching experience.
