Graciela: Halifax tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a student at Case Western Reserve University and am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Environmental Studies. Before moving to Ohio for college, I enjoyed the California sunshine and all of the outdoor activities that it had to offerwhen I could find the free time of course. Most of my high school afternoons were spent volunteering at my local emergency room; cooking and preparing food at a nearby homeless shelter; or providing free tutoring to elementary students living at or near the poverty line. Working with these kids is what got me interested in tutoring. When Im not working with younger students, I enjoy tutoring courses like Spanish, Biology, and Environmental Science because they really push students to understand and not just memorize. I know that I have instilled them with the confidence necessary to succeed in the course when my student can explain the content back to me in their own words.
