Experience
I studied neuroscience at Brown University and, in 2012, received a Rhodes scholarship to, well, keep doing that at the University of Oxford. In the U.K., I picked up a master's in neuroscience and a second master's in public policy; both from Oxford. Somewhere along the way, I decided I liked school enough that it was worth teaching a bit, too. Over the past five years, I've worked as a private tutor, a prep school teacher, a peer advisor, and a writing fellow. Teaching, for me, is about helping students develop their intuition and curiosity. It's never about memorization—rather, it's about the tools that are necessary to make things like memorization come naturally and seem warranted.
