...assisted my peers with coursework as an undergraduate at Notre Dame. I believe learning looks different for everyone, and a little patience and creativity can go a long way in tutoring.

I specialize in writing as a professional skill and personal hobby; I like to read, eat, paint,...

...through a volunteer project I did some tutoring in other subjects such as English and History. Anywhere in the sciences is what I really enjoy tutoring and have the best grasp of the content, biology specifically because I have taken a plethora of biology/pre-med classes and have found my passion in that field.

...how something works on their own significantly improves long term recall, instead of simply feeding them formulae and rules for them to regurgitate on an examination.

I graduated high school with enough credits to obtain a minor in...

I can tutor nearly any S.T.E.M course up through highschool (and some college), along with English and grammar - more specifically paper writing - up to an early college level.

I use this modification on the old adage to show that when practicing anything from math to grammar, repetition of the correct...

I also have a blast editing essays, so make sure to use all of these services to their fullest potential!

Moreover, when I teach students a certain concept, to some extent I am reliving the process of learning that concept myself, both by explaining the concept in new ways and by seeing students wrestle with and eventually grasp the concept for themselves. For me, teaching is a way of "living vicariously" through students by experiencing the joy of learning once more. As a tutor, I...

...student isn't grasping causes more harm than good when it causes the child to become so frustrated that they simply shut down and stop trying to learn at all. Assessing learning styles after repeated issues with problems is necessary. If a student needs to sing, they can sing their reading assignment to hear the errors. They can tap their body as they learn the stronger math concepts. They can hear the directions read, they can...

I aim to not only improve test scores, but to set students up so they may efficiently study without a tutor. I hope to not only have an impact on students during the few hours I see them, but to improve their study habits for a lifetime's impact.
