...11th grade chemistry, I struggled to understand the difference between a cation and anion. Frustrated and desperate for help, I asked my fellow classmates, who responded with nothing but an empty stare.

...realize their full intellectual potential. I am fluent in Spanish and have taught students in Peru. I also published peer reviewed papers in Spanish. In addition to Spanish language skills, I am also an experienced and published writer. My papers have appeared in high profile venues like the Proceedings of the National Academies of Science and the Proceedings of the Royal Society. I am particularly motivated to help students develop writing skills.... My teaching philosophy is informed by Paulo Freire's "critical pedagogy." This is an educational philosophy that links the identification of issues to positive action for change and development. The educational process is never neutral. Individuals can be either passive recipients of knowledge or they can engage in a problem-posing approach in which they become active participants. Consistent with critical pedagogy, I firmly adhere to the philosophy that effective learning entails active participation and collaboration by both student and teacher.

Hello! I am Dawn. I love tutoring, especially in one on one situations, because I love to watch the light in someone's eyes when they "get it."

Learning is individual, and I enjoy being able to make the experience worthwhile for the student.
