About Me

I am currently a senior at Truman State University studying History and minoring in English. I primarily tutor in two areas: math and history. Since the two subjects are very different, my tutoring styles differ for each. My goal as a tutor is see my students succeed on their own. When working with Statistics students I go through their homework one problem at a time. I will talk the student through the first problem and then will give a problem with similar conditions and have them attempt it on their own. Through this, the student will be learning how to complete the problem with low stakes and low stress. When tutoring in History, my goal is to fill in the missing gaps. To do this, I facilitate a conversation about the subject, whether that be the French Revolution or any other historical event. By having a conversation, dry historical information becomes more interesting and memorable. I began tutoring with Varsity Tutors in the Fall of 2015. Before that, I have experience working at my high school tutoring as well as working with younger kids and getting them interested in learning. In the Spring of 2017 I took the semester off from tutoring because I was studying abroad in Ireland, a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As a history major, visiting historical sites, such as Rome and Paris, really brought my history books to life and I cannot wait to incorporate this experience into my tutoring. I am an avid reader and will be graduating university with my bachelors in History within the next year.
