I greatly enjoyed my time at CWRU, and I wasinvolved in groups such as Women in Liberal Arts and the ResidentialHousing Association???s Community Involvement Committee. Because of that, I completed apost-baccalaureate program at Cleveland State University last year,and next August I will be going to graduate school for an MPH inepidemiology. I???ve been accepted to Emory and University ofMichigan-Ann Arbor so far, and I???m waiting on the other schools I???veapplied to. I???m really excited to start my career in epidemiology, andI???m not even sure how I???ll decide which school to attend! I???ve been tutoring since 2009; for the last six years, I haveprivately tutored junior high to graduate level students in all typesof subjects: from algebra to to biology to history to statistics. I???veparticularly tutored many high school students, where I tutor nearlyall aspects of their curriculum. I have tutored extensively in ACT/SATpreparation, with private and professional experience. I also workedfor a year at the Cleveland State Writing Center, where I helpedcollege students improve their writing skills. I love tutoring in allits forms, but I am particularly passionate about ACT/SAT prep,writing, and high school math. Writing has always been a passion ofmine, and I feel like it is applicable to so many parts of life. It isalso so fulfilling to see a student improve on the ACT/SAT, makingmeasurable changes and gaining confidence. I???ve always enjoyed math aswell, and I enjoy showing students how math can be interesting andfun. My tutoring style is really student-focused. I very much strive totailor my tutoring to each student???s needs, as every student is uniquein their needs and preferences. I work towards full comprehension,talking through their thinking processes, and helping them learnthrough their own mechanisms. I teach them the skills, strategies, andcontent, and I give students the confidence to utilize these toimprove their studies. I reinforce the foundations of what they arelearning, and particularly in test prep, I make sure students have allthe important strategies down. I try and build camaraderie with mystudents, making sure they feel comfortable and realize that I toowent through the stressful process of school, whether it be juniorhigh, high school, or college. When I am not working or in school, I really value my free time. Ienjoy crafting and sewing, and am working on dresses and earrings. Ilove watching documentaries and listening to podcasts. I like readinga lot of nonfiction, particularly sociology and science, whether it bebooks or articles. I like exploring Cleveland, such as trying newfood, going to exhibits, and anything from bowling to arcades.
