I am passionate about tutoring and about making students love learning. I can help with test prep, study skills, organizational skills, or a variety of subjects including up to college level physics, chemistry, and biology.

When students are struggling with reading comprehension, I will ask them to underline, highlight, and identify any vocabulary words they do not understand. Then, we will begin to puzzle out the meaning of the word using contextual clues.

...and it ignited an interest in tutoring again. At the moment, I am most prepared to tutor for ACT and SAT preparation in all subject areas. My personal favorite areas are the English, reading, and writing portions of these tests. In addition, I am prepared to tutor college students in ecology, which was a particular interest of mine while obtaining my degree.

Also, not to brag but I'm aslo pretty ace at air-guitar. I love hiking because I like to scream my lungs out on mountain tops. Some less-impressive hobbies I enjoy are people-watching, splashing in puddles, watching sci-fi anythings, hugging warm laundry, ignoring humans if puppies...
