Jillian: Waterbury tutor

Certified Tutor

I started on air reporting at just seven-years-old for the local cable station in my New Jersey hometown, and since then, my broadcast journalism career spanning more than 25 years has taken me to all corners of the country and the worldfrom Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands to Jordan in the Middle East, from New York to Los Angeles, from Florida to Maine. I've spent years telling other people's stories through on camera live shots, emotional interviews, compelling video, animated voice overs and poised on camera live shots. I just finished a stint as a Public Affairs Specialist with the Federal Aviation Administration. My educational background at the University of Southern California, and TEFL certification, along with other knowledge gained through on-the-job learning, make me a great option for your tutoring needs. I'm patient, caring, and most importantly, enthusiastic! Looking forward to working with you.
