Ciara C.
Academic Tutor
About Me.
I have a passion for helping students achieve their academic goals and have over five years of experience working as a tutor in various math and science subjects. Additionally, I have taught two semesters of high school biology, algebra 1, precalculus, and chemistry. My teaching style is very collaborative and engaging and I am versatile in adapting to each student's unique learning style.
I am also a 200 Hour YTT-Certified Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga Instructor and practice yoga and meditation on a daily basis. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, gardening, playing guitar, and surfing. I also love spending time with my cat, Shasta.
