" Originally from Cut Off, Louisiana, I grew up in a bilingual community. As I aged I had difficulties with my writing because my English education was French inflected. Therefore, I was tutored to improve my writing abilities. Having been through this very positive tutoring experience, I feel I am particularly attune to students in my tutoring sessions, since I experienced the often challenging or stressful, but ultimately fun and rewarding, tutoring process. After being tutored myself, I have tutored and taught high school and college students on both a professional and personal level in Louisiana, Mississippi, and DC." ...
