Daniel
Certified Tutor
I'm a graduate of Northern Arizona University, where I earned my Bachelor's degree in English after switching my major from Secondary Education - English, which I studied for two years. Teaching has always been central to my goals, and my time in NAU's College of Education strengthened my understanding of how students learn best.
I have over two years of classroom and tutoring experience across language arts subjects, including College English, Creative Writing, and English Grammar and Syntax, with a particular focus on developing Essay Writing skills. My teaching philosophy centers on open communication and helping students express their ideas with confidence. I aim to meet each student where they are, fostering a supportive learning environment that builds both skill and self-assurance.
Outside of tutoring, I read and write daily to refine my craftcontinuing a lifelong love for language that informs and improves my teaching.

Degree: Northern Arizona University - Bachelor's, English
I spend much of my free time reading and writing, and I love exploring new ideas in literature and all forms of media. I regularly go to movie theaters and enjoy both video and tabletop games. I also research, write, and produce analytical video essays about novel methods of storytelling and design in video games, which I upload to YouTube. Outside of my creative work, I enjoy traveling, hiking, and spending time outdoors, which helps me recharge and bring fresh energy to my writing and teaching.
