...Zambia, Africa to visit a friend living there. It was an incredible trip. We sat in the devil's pool at Victoria Falls (I recommend looking up a photo). We also went on a safari and had many other great adventures. Since then I have traveled to Italy (also wonderful) and hope to do some more...

...giving students abilities that they can use not only to get high scores, but to help them develop stronger, more well-rounded skill sets.

...in Biology with minors in Jazz studies and Philosophy. I have been tutoring students in an unofficial capacity since high school. When I became an undergraduate I wanted to continue to help students, so I started a tutoring program for underclassmen who were struggling in their science courses. Outside of this, I volunteered my time...

...I recognize that to be a tutor one has to be flexible and open to connect with the student first, to listen and figure out what things I can actually help them with. It is always my goal to help students understand concepts and problem solving strategies themselves, so that they can tackle and solve...

As an American History major I'm especially interested in history, government, literature and the arts. Reading and grammar are my specialities!

My tutoring style is very focused, fun, and relaxed. I believe students do best when in a calm, encouraging atmosphere. I never stray from the task...

...bring a strong Math and Science background to help students struggling with these difficult subjects. I believe that the secret to succeeding in these subjects is not in memorizing solutions and equations, but by developing problem solving skills so students will know how to approach and set up problems in any STEM setting.... In math and science, knowing how to set up and approach a problem is probably 75% of the battle. I believe that teaching...
