Our Team

Hanan Rimawi attended Ursuline Academy in New Orleans, the oldest girls’ Catholic school in the United States. From there she went on to obtain dual degrees in neuroscience and public health from Tulane University. Pursuing her passion in healthcare, she is currently studying medicine at Stanford University.

Hanan is what some might call an accidental educator. She always imagined that she’d enter medical school right out of college but deviated from that plan, a turn that gave her the opportunity to experience teaching. Her first official foray into the field brought her to Amman, Jordan, where she taught conversational and academic English under the U.S. Fulbright Student Program. Realizing that she enjoyed the challenges and rewards of leading a class, she took up a position teaching middle school English literature and language arts upon returning stateside. Now she guides high school students across Asia and America to develop their writing and critical thinking skills as a one-on-one mentor and small class instructor. At ARCH, she’ll be assisting students with their biology and psychology coursework, along with the SAT exam.  

Hanan’s students have all appreciated her ability to meet them where they are and create a low-stress learning environment. Outside of work, Hanan enjoys cycling, daydreaming, and basking in the sunshine with her ever-growing collection of cats.
