...statuses. Teaching English at a high school there challenged me to engage with my students' countless and evolving perspectives on learning, writing, and reading literature. As they learned from me to analyze and write about literature, so I learned from them to consider novel perspectives on the texts we read and tailored my lessons to be more conducive to all viewpoints and backgrounds in the classroom. I now teach composition and literature classes at a...

...am working towards a BS in computer science with minors in mathematics and Chinese. When I'm not studying, I'm rehearsing with the Musical Theater Club or hiking. When I'm studying, my goal is to make sure I understand why I'm doing whatever I'm doing. Whether it's Chinese grammar or a calculus problem, I want to know the reasoning behind each step. The same is true for my tutoring style. I believe it's important that students...

...was honestly one of the more "fun" parts of my application. It was great to see how my students could eventually come around to seeing standardized tests as a puzzle, rather than a chore. I've since spent several semesters as an Introductory Chemistry TA during my undergrad at Amherst College, where I majored in Biochemistry and Biophysics, magna cum laude. I'm also pre-med; I'm applying to medical schools now, for matriculation in the fall of...

Of those subjects, my favorite to tutor is U.S. Government.
