...questions and the students wanted more help from me after that! By senior year, I was a private chemistry tutor.

And because I believe that, I also believe that anyone can learn to do anything as long as he or she puts in the time. The only way I got better at writing is by writing more. And writing about the things that matter to me (which was and is basketball). Slowly, I...

Then I point out instances where the student can use the strategies (and guide the student through them if need be). Lastly, I back off a bit, allowing the student to use strategies on his or her own. In the Writing Center, this process has given students greater confidence as they internalize knowledge and become increasingly...

I believe that those three are interwoven because in order to succeed in one you have to strive and achieve in all. On a personal note I am an avid runner and reader.
