...hard work anything is possible! In addition to my tutoring time, I fill my life with Zumba and competitive sports. I am a very active person and love a good competition. Growing up I was a part of the Mathletes, the Academic Team, and many other organizations, so I understand the struggle of a demanding gifted student's schedule. I also played volleyball and swam on the Junior Olympics team and was always very busy! Students...

...and philosophy at various levels. I also work with students on ACT/SAT Reading, ACT/SAT Math, ACT Science, ACT/SAT English, and ACT/SAT Writing.

...some more grammar knowledge; I am seeking to help them hear their own voice in their writing and bring that with them to the next step in their careers. I believe I'm uncommonly well-suited for being an English tutor because I've come from a place of not really being able to write.

...Assistant (TA), going so far as to get special permission to TA Logic as an undergraduate due to my passion for teaching the subject, and participating in cross-departmental Physics-Education studies during my two semesters as a Physics TA.

...me. Education is one of the most important values in my life: it is indispensable not only because of society's increasing valuation of it, but because it makes us more well-rounded and flourishing people on the whole. I am a firm believer in the idea that learning should be fun - never a chore - and I try to bring that to every student I work with. I also acknowledge that each student is unique,...

...minor that was perfect for my interests and learning style. This education, combined with my experience as a teacher in Creighton's "Philosophy for Children" program, has helped me to understand that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about.
