...just recently left the university and moved to Chicago. In addition to teaching at the University of Nebraska, I worked as a writing tutor at a community college and loved the experience. I mostly worked with non-traditional students ranging in ages 17-70, many of whom use English as a second language. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Writing and Literature. In my experience, a lot of people fear...

...complex texts, because to translate Latin into English with any amount of success, a near-complete understanding of English grammar is needed. Latin does not have a native punctuation and includes very loose rules considering word order. Thus, in order to translate Latin into English, you must be able to figure out the punctuation and word order on your own.

...in France, she told me that she'd felt more confident about the essays after I gave her my feedback. "You asked some probing questions that made them more relatable", she said. I had to think in a deeper way. She'll be graduating this May with a degree in French.

...World History, English Composition, ESL and French language and Culture. I enjoy getting to know my students and helping them discover their optimal learning style. To do so, I tailor my teaching style and methods to each individual student. The beauty of 1-on-1 tutoring is being able to offer this unique tailor-made service. We are all lifetime learners and I find that each tutoring session offers a rewarding opportunity in reciprocal learning.... The optimal way to...

...think learning and seeking help when needed is so important! My favorite subject to both learn about and tutor is English, especially writing and AP English Language and Composition. I'm a sophomore at Loyola University Chicago with a double major in English and History, and I have previous writing experience with three newspapers including the AJC and NPR. I'm also qualified to tutor Latin and History, with which I have a high level of experience....

...greatest passions are biology and British literature, with a side of European history and 2-D studio art and design. Because I have such a broad educational background, I can help students build connections within their own universe of knowledge. I closely track each students performance to identify areas of strength to use as a framework for learning new material. I then teach my students not only the material they are struggling with but also how...
