With over 2 years as a remote tutor and additional experience in teaching and training people from a variety of ages and cultures, I enjoy developing and adapting content to learners' needs, level and learning goals.
With my honors in Geography, specializing in GIS, I enjoy working with technology, learning new things and helping others. I recently completed my Instructional Design and Tech Accelerator certificate and am eager to use my skills and knowledge to solve problems and develop engaging learning solutions.
In my free time I enjoy reading, photography, drawing/painting, hiking and generally spending time in nature.
