I began tutoring during my freshman year at Hamilton College, during which I volunteered at the local refugee center in Utica, NY. As an English tutor, I worked with the refugees to improve their written and oral language skills. This opportunity exposed me to the exciting and rewarding world of tutoring and motivated me to continue down this line of work. During my junior...... I believe in an encouraging and open learning environment. The student should always feel comfortable asking questions. From my experience, such an environment leads to accelerated learning. I also believe in tailored tutoring. It is always my goal to create sessions that match the students' needs, learning style, and interests. This way the lesson becomes pertinent to the student's life. Learning should be exciting and interesting, not stressful or intimidating, and it is always my goal to make it so.
