"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.

"My duties include office hours where students who just finished lab come to complete their lab reports and ask questions. I take my tutoring/mentoring job very seriously. Because there is a new lab every week, I attend the lab lecture that students attend, read through the lab, finish the pre-lab, lab report and additional exercises ahead of time, check the answers, and go to weekly mentor meetings to discuss potential questions students may have. Thus, I put in a lot of time outside office hours to make sure that I understand the material completely so that I can explain it in the clearest way possible." ...

This has given me a unique insight into the college admissions process--and ...

"This minor required that I have a strong grasp of the International Phonetic Alphabet which makes me exited about tutoring Phonics. About three years ago, I began teaching Spanish with Teach For America and have found a true joy in teaching. I am passionate about helping students to achieve their full potential. I have worked mostly with 9-12 graders, but I am committed to meeting learners where they are and finding meaningful, practical (and sometimes goofy) ways to make information stick."
