Maddy: Johns Creek tutor

Certified Tutor

I recently graduated from Claremont McKenna College in Claremont, CA where I earned a Bachelors of Arts with honors in Government. I hope to attend law school in the future. I have tutored several students geometry, algebra, and pre-algebra helping them improve their understanding and accuracy of these topics. I tutor these subjects within math in addition to SAT math. I love math because of the great feeling one gets when solving a problem. Additionally, I have coached high school debaters who were nationally competitive. In that role, I helped them write and research on complex philosophical and policy topics. This experience, in addition to my writing-intensive major, has prepared me to tutor writing. I tutor 6th grade through 9th grade writing in addition to AP Government and History. I am passionate about these subjects because I love thinking about arguments. My tutoring philosophy is to focus on individual problems or assignments and work through examples with students; I do not lecture unless necessary. I find that students are more productive and successful when actively engaged. I strive to challenge my students while being patient and kind. Outside of academics, I am interested in cooking, travel, and skiing.
