Hi, I'm Oscar.

Co-founded a tutoring-focused summer camp from scratch. Hired and trained every tutor on staff, designed the daily program, and ran day-to-day operations across the full 6-week session.

Pitched local businesses and family networks to fund camp operations and need-based scholarships, so cost was never a reason a kid couldn't attend.

Wrote the internal tutor handbook covering session structure, questioning techniques, handling frustration, and feedback — then ran the weekly check-ins where every tutor brought back what worked and what didn't. The handbook became this site.

Teach at Northwest Chinese School on weekends — a community language and culture program. Where I got my first real reps in front of a class, not just one student.

Investigating how neurodivergent students learn differently and what tutoring practices actually serve them well — beyond the one-size-fits-all advice in most teaching guides.

Studying how different demographic groups respond to misinformation and which framings change minds. Origin of the 'Fake News Detector' work that taught me how much teaching matters: people don't need more facts, they need better thinking.
