Andrea: Oswego SAT Writing and Language course instructor
I currently attend the University of Chicago, where I major in Political Science and Biology. When I'm not spending hours reading Nietzsche, I'm doing improv comedy and graphic design. I'm currently pursuing a career in advertising/consulting, and in my spare time I eat mini tacos and watch Louis CK stand-up comedy. ... Teaching is about taking something complex and making it easy to understand. I like to focus a lot on students' questions, as they give me a view into how students best learn a subject.
