...ideas effectively whether they are working on a research paper or a piece of fiction. A lot of people I know have admitted, at some point, to being flat-out scared of writing. Good communication through writing is a nuanced skill, but with patience and practice it can become second-nature to anyone! I'm currently the Poetry Editor at Underground, GSU's undergraduate art and literary journal. I have lived in the Chamblee-Tucker area my whole life, and...

...pedagogy emphasizes experiential education; in other words, encouraging students to explore, ask questions, and often times learning from mistakes. I believe, and have often personally seen evidence to support this, that mistakes are our best teachers. I don't want to lecture on the best way to solve a problem; you have plenty of time in the classroom for that. Instead, I would rather help you identify your own strengths and weaknesses and develop strategies that...

...I love working with people! That is also why I became a tutor. I love helping people achieve things they want to do.

I have found that if you understand why you are learning something, remembering the details is much easier. Of course, part of my job is to help sort...

...the SAT and other school subjects. I developed a true appreciation for working with students to not only improve their grades, but also their confidence and mindset. Making sure the students' goals align with my goals (and, of course, the parents' goals!) gives the student the internal motivation and drive that is required to apply the insight gained at a tutoring session to every day academic performance. I am absolutely confident that any student can...
