Experience
Due to my strong academics, I have been tutoring other students for 4 years. During high school, I helped my peers with math and Spanish, and I volunteered as a private tutor in reading and writing during college before I left to study abroad. Additionally, during college, I tutored math and science in a nearby CPS school, assisting the teacher during class. I would like to be a tutor because I enjoy helping others and have a strong academic background to share.

Hobbies
My main interests lie in culture and language, though overall I have a strong grasp on many subjects. I am highly proficient in Spanish, but am also currently learning Arabic, French, and Portuguese. Apart from school, I participate in clubs such as Trade Winds, in which I am a mentor to an international student during their year abroad. I love learning and working with people, which is why I am a pre-med student. I have volunteered as a tutor many times, and have also volunteered in various hospitals. I even hold an EMT license, though I have not been able to practice much since I went abroad. During my spare time, I am quite the voracious reader and I also enjoy playing the piano or spending time with my friends. Additionally, I like exploring different areas and meeting new people.
