"I plan on applying to graduate school this year to further my studies as an English student. Ultimately, I want to teach English and write prose in my free time. I love tutoring because it enables me to share my passion for literature with students and hone my teaching abilities as I continue my education. I have experience tutoring students in multiple subject areas, but I primarily tutor English and History at the middle school and high school level. I have had great success with my students by helping them develop their writing skills while finding a love for literature in the process." ...

" Before this I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Bachelor's degrees in Geography and Humanities. Having been exposed to an eclectic background of liberal arts and hard science I am comfortable tutoring across a broad range of subjects and encourage students to see the inherent connections between their work and real-world applications. Despite my technical background, I am a person who would much rather contemplate the words in a good book rather than the letters of a differential equation. However, my interest in studying the natural world has caused me to suffer through more math classes than I care to ...

"I have mostly tutored high school students but have found that I also work very well with younger clients. While I have excelled throughout my academic career, I myself have struggled with test anxiety and with "keeping up" in more advanced classes. I know what it is to work HARD for a grade! I believe this makes me a better tutor, as I can truly empathize with my clients and their struggles. I believe many students lack confidence in their own abilities and give up discouraged if they don't "get it" as quickly as their peers."
