...my day. I graduated from Carthage College in 2016 with a Bachelor's Degree in Theater Performance and Music.

When I'm not working, I enjoy reading (generally fiction and science fiction), playing basketball and running, and watching NBA games.... My teaching...

...I was a child. My father and I would make up stories together when I was about three years old, and my passion for storytelling, its methods, and its power has never ceased to amaze me. As my scholarship continued, I came to admire and respect the mechanical and stylistic elements of not only creative writing, but also expository/persuasive writing. The latter was much more difficult for me. Upon finding my voice and my strength...

Anyone can learn anything, it's just a matter of how.... I believe that anyone can learn anything, it is just a matter of how. The most important factor about teaching is making sure that the student truly understands the material, no matter what it takes. Different methods work for different people.... In a typical first session with a student, I would like to get a feeling for his/her learning style. I like to see what the...

...at a time. I spent two years tutoring SAT Verbal, Writing and Reading Comp strategies at Karen Dillard's College Prep. I also privately tutored my peers in Spanish while I was an undergraduate at the University of Dallas. One-on-one tutoring provides students with an opportunity to receive the extra instruction and attention that they don't always receive in a classroom setting. There is nothing more frustrating than struggling to understand new concepts and new materials...

...problem. I enjoy teaching French and English language skills to others, and I am particularly good at making literature of both languages more accessible and entertaining.

In 2014, I earned two degrees from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. Since then, I've worked...
