...Biology and a minor in Psychology. Over the last eight years, I have taken the ACT, SAT, and MCAT; I have also experienced the rigors of applying to 10+ colleges and 30+ medical schools.

I am eager to help students prepare for college applications, including mastering standardized tests, college essays, and study strategies. I am also driven...

...algebra, and ESL for 4 years at the Andrews School private day and boarding school. I taught English at Webb School of Knoxville with an emphasis on writing and grammar. My experiences with ESL, as well as graduate level linguistic courses and the particular attention I paid to the writing process, give me the grammatical knowledge most English majors never get.

...to read and write; they just need a teacher with passion and purpose to take the time and effort to determine how to best instruct the individual student; I am that teacher.

I want to encourage, teach, and...

I am a "nerd": Worked in computer programming, love video games, obsessed w...

...as writing in new media. I have a tendency to think outside the box when presented with ideas -- sometimes without realizing my audience wasn't prepared for outside-the-box essays. I can help you craft an essay, no matter the subject material, or, I can help you wade through compositional matter. I also love diagramming sentences, which seems to be a lost art form... sadly. That's all I can think of for now, but here are...

I enjoy working with students, and have been fortunate to do so many places, including England, France, and California.

Not surprisingly, writing is my favorite subject...

...generation." Growing up I knew my vision in life was to educate. I loved, from a young age, seeing someone journey through process and being able to coach them along the way from day one.
