...Studies from Gordon College in 2008. For graduate studies I decided to focus on the History and Geography of the Middle East and thought there was no better place to do so than in the Middle East itself.

...it is. In my free time I love to hang out with my friends, play either of my favorite sports, golf and basketball, and work on cars. I still stay connected with almost all of my professors from Flagler and we often times find ourselves working on a project together, which I love because it helps keep me connected to my alma matter.

...while tutoring for OSU, which taught me the methods needed to effectively relay information to students. As a philosophy student I also utilize the Socratic method while tutoring, which focuses on asking students questions in order to get them to reach their answers. Throughout my experience tutoring I've found that engaging a student in dialogue about the question at hand is far more successful than doing all of the talking. There's no better way of...

...the substantial weight of the LSAT in the admissions process, however, I am particularly passionate about helping students master this test.

This education, combined with my experience as a teacher in Creighton's "Philosophy for Children" program, has helped me to understand that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about.

Despite how overbearing or intimidating that might sound, I also think that light, informal settings...
