I am a Philosophy and Physics student at Columbia University with extensive experience in bilingual education, math and science tutoring, and chess instruction. My passion for chess has driven me to not only become a competitive player but also to teach and inspire others through innovative and engaging lessons. I am dedicated to leveraging my love for chess, education, and the interdisciplinary connections between them to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills in my students. As a self-learner of piano for over 4 years, I am about to understand, through practicing, the sublimity of Bach. I am eager to explore opportunities that allow me to apply my teaching, tutoring, and course development skills while continuing to grow both personally and professionally.
