Meet the Founder
With over 16 years of experience as an educator and tutor, I’ve had the privilege of supporting learners from preschool through adulthood across the globe. As a certified K–12 teacher with experience in Exceptional Student Education, my teaching journey has included supporting students with diverse learning needs, adapting instruction to meet a wide range of abilities, and creating inclusive learning environments. Along the way, I’ve also taught English in Thailand and worked with students in China, gaining valuable cross-cultural teaching experience. I've helped students increase test scores, grow their confidence, and gain admission to top-choice universities.
My approach is always rooted in personalization and a commitment to nurturing both academic skills and self-belief. Whether I'm helping a three-year-old develop early literacy skills or guiding a high school senior through college applications, I aim to meet each learner where they are and support them in reaching their unique goals.
Some of my proudest accomplishments include:
​
-
Cultivating confidence in students who once felt discouraged about learning.
-
Supporting international students in gaining admission to competitive U.S. high school programs.
-
Helping students improve standardized test scores and writing skills to secure spots at top universities.
-
Tutoring English as a Second Language (ESL) learners in both one-on-one and classroom settings, adapting instruction across cultures.
Ayni learning Space —a community-focused space dedicated to tailored educational support. Our tutoring programs will emphasize the whole child by integrating academics while offering additional enrichment options in areas like art, STEM, and world languages. We'll also collaborate with local professionals to create unique learning experiences and foster deeper community connections.
My mission is to provide a space where learners feel seen, supported, and inspired to grow, not just academically, but personally and socially as well.
