Lastly, I love both teaching and...

...I enjoy it immensely. At Syracuse, I worked with a program called Literacy Corps, tutoring students from all over the city. After graduating, I entered an AmeriCorps program in Pennsylvania, teaching full time for a year. I feel that having tutored for so long and being so recently out of school gives me an advantage in helping students. I intimately remember the struggles of trying to learn material that just wouldn't click in my head....

...help students who may have trouble remembering things, organizing, and paying attention. My passion is to meet each student where they are at and try to mold my tutoring style to what they need. To do this, I employ verbal, visual, and kinesthetic techniques and enjoy facilitating the process in which students learn how they learn best.

...law. Upon graduation, I plan to pursue a J.D./MBA program, but I may take a few years in between college and graduate school to conduct research or work at a firm. As a middle schooler I struggled profusely with mathematics and english. Unfortunately, most of my tutors had always excelled in the subjects they were teaching me, so they were unable to comprehend why I was struggling and were ill equipped to design a study...

...pretty mean at Math and Geometry and have been reacquainting myself with those subjects over the past few months as I do not get a lot of Math practice as a lawyer! My own learning accomplishments were always assisted by one on one interactions, and I know so many students can benefit by individualized attention. I hope to teach by example, to provide clear and simple explanations for complex concepts, and to be able to...
