...I have been a university tutor, a graduate teaching assistant, and a high school teacher. I believe tutoring is about passion and communication. If the student doesn't care about the subject, it will be very difficult for them to learn it.

The love for the former two stems from years of education and interest in the sciences, and the latter harks even further back to my addiction to reading that I acquired in elementary school.

It's also why I love college essays, because I get to see where the student's heart is. In my spare time, I read and make bold strides toward learning how to cook. I love hiking and being outside in almost any capacity, I...
