I graduated with honors from UC Berkeley's English program. While in college, I worked as a tutor, designing lesson plans and teaching accelerated classes for elementary to high schoolers within a day-time tutoring program.

This, I've found, has the biggest impact on a student's performance.

...University and independently. I enjoy tutoring Calculus the most because I love watching the moment when everything clicks for a student. I am passionate about making material more accessible to students and building a bridge between how the instructor explains material in a classroom and how the student perceives the information.

That understanding of culture I could bring to the student I'm tutoring, to give them more depth of knowledge of the language. I've also been trained in the idiomatic pronunciation (diction) of these languages (I'm an opera singer) so I would be able to help the student pronounce the words with a more native-sounding accent. Finally, I've been...
