...too. Last summer I translated the skills I earned through this on-campus job to Vietnam where I helped Vietnamese students prepare to apply to boarding schools and colleges in the U.S. I served as a teaching assistant for English and test-prep classes, from intermediate and advanced writing to SAT classes, TOEFL tutoring, and college essay consultations.
