About Me

I graduated in May 2016 with a BA in Romance Studies (Italian, Spanish, French) and a minor in linguistics from Ohio State. I have worked as a private Spanish tutor for a family with two 11-year-old boys, so I know how to handle a student working from their own home. Although that has been my only other formal tutoring job, I have always been the go-to language guru for my friends and family, and therefore have a lot of practice explaining linguistic concepts in many different ways. I am able to tutor in English grammar, Spanish, French, Italian, basic German, and basic Latin. I love teaching them all; languages are my passion, and since I love to communicate by nature, I can't wait to share my passion with my new students! I hope that, as a student myself, I'm a little more approachable than a teacher, but I'm still not here to give away answers. I hope to have my students lead the sessions (in terms of what we cover that day) since they know best what they want to get out of their tutoring, and in return I will work with them on that topic and try to make it relatable and fun. When I'm not studying grammar, I like to play the violin and guitar, watch Disney movies, bingewatch my favorite TV shows (Doctor Who, Star Trek, Once Upon a Time, The Librarians), read (Harry Potter, Percy Jackson), and write. I also have the travel bug; I have visited 7 European countries and also studied abroad in Rome in 2014. After school, I really hope to intern at Walt Disney World and eventually work there.
