I am motivated to tutor by my own experiences as a student, in particular by my history and rhetoric professors at Boston University. Since then, curiosity and learning have proven incredibly empowering for me. Language and reading, especially, have inspired moments of expression, creativity, and self-worth. Mastery of history shapes the way I see and believe in the world. We are all equipped with special skills and it's exciting to uncover how we best understand a variety of subjects. I can't w...More

I am a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University, with a Bachelor of Science in Mass Communications and a focus in Journalism.

I'm a well-trained educational specialist capable of providing a unique, personalized and engaging education to positively impact the lives of my students.

I am a graduate of Deep Springs College: an elite liberal arts program located in Eastern California. Unlike most schools, the admission process to Deep Springs involves writing - and later defending before a panel of staff, faculty and students - seven essays on a variety of subjects including literature, philosophy, and education. Once admitted to Deep Springs, students are typically required to read upwards of 100 pages per day from authors such as Hegel, Joyce, and Thucydides; and to write s...More

I am from Buffalo NY. I have an associates degree and I am currently working on my bachelors degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. My goal is to make students successful in school, while making a tutoring session enjoyable and not stressful. I hope I can help make an impact and help you improve in a strategy.

I'm big on pictures and diagrams as educational tools. If you can draw a picture to describe a cellular or bodily process, you will be likely to be able to answer a written question about it.

I am looking forward to working with students again! I was a teacher/tutor for several years before beginning my family 2 years ago. My husband and I recently had twin girls and then a little boy so I have taken a break from the 9-5 scene for a bit. I miss teaching and working with students and I am excited to get back into the world of education. Helping students understand different topics in math (specifically) is my passion and I look forward to working with new students to help them gain co...More

I am a current Dietetics student, Dietitian Education Program intern, and 4+1 student pursuing a Master's of Adult Education. So far at Buffalo state, I have become the treasurer of both the Nutrition Club and the Rotaract Club. I also earned an award this Spring for my 300 community service hours. In my early twenties, I started a business painting cars out of the back of my SUV. I feel it is a great outlet to be creative and work independently but I crave the mental stimulation of academia and...More

I am determined to ensure my students are confident with the information they are learning, feel comfortable in their learning environments and never feel embarrassed for asking questions.
