During my junior year of college, I studied abroad in Granada, Spain where I lived with a host family and taught English at a local middle school.

I believe in instilling an understanding of the subject or topic in my student rather than simply regurgitating test strategies.

I hold that every student has the potential to learn every subject as a fundamental truth of education.

I have a passion for studying people and cultures and have found great success teaching my students to both understand and appreciate the power of a good narrative both in history and literature.

...on his or her own terms. I have found a good sense of humor my most useful tool in this endeavor; laughter creates comfort. Moreover, comedy stimulates the intellect, as it appeals to reason (that is, if you're laughing at a joke, that means you've 'gotten it'). My strong background in theatre, improv, and sketch comedy makes it easy for me to maintain a student's attention. I am pursuing a career in entertainment, and have...

Eventually my...

...range of subjects including basic math and science. I believe firmly in the philosophy of "struggling together", because as a student myself, I understand the challenge of trying to improve in an area where you don't feel confident. While I will definitely sympathize with students, that does not take away from my firm belief that growth is 100% possible with dedicated effort. I will aim to foster a positive and (hopefully fun) tutoring environment, and...

...United States' detention system, so I'm very comfortable with knowing how to produce an effective, readable and interesting piece of writing.
