...tutoring Geometry, Trigonometry, Algebra, and Advanced Math, though I also enjoy tutoring in Statistics and Personal Finance. I'm naturally gifted in editing and proofreading documents (I think it's due to my Hermione Granger tendencies of being a know-it-all), and I can offer help in formatting essays or papers to sound just right.
