BACKGROUND:
I have been tutoring diverse students in many subjects for over a dozen years now. I believe that a strong education is the backbone of a good life.

I am a Summa Cum Laude graduate from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and a minor in Philosophy and Ethics. I attended as a National Merit and Flinn Scholar. After graduating, I served for a term in AmeriCorps.

SPECIALTIES:
I tutor in many subjects: most HS subjects, test prep, and college general education, as well as high-level coursework in social sciences, history, philosophy, and other humanities. I can serve as a single, long-term tutor for students that need support in several subjects. I consider myself an "expert generalist," which is a rare specialty at the college level.
I enjoy working with students with learning differences. For example, students who need help keeping up with the many reading and writing assignments in college.
I also work well with international students and non-native English speakers.

SUBJECTS:
At all levels: English, writing, economics, psychology, history, philosophy, sociology, political science, ethics, logic.
In math: algebra, geometry, introductory statistics.
In science: Up to and including introductory college biology, earth science, astronomy, ecology and geography. Also up to high school physics and chemistry.

TESTS:
Standardized exams: ACT, GRE, PSAT, SAT, GMAT, and many high school AP subjects).
For grad school entrance exams, I am strongest with the verbal and writing sections, but also comfortable with quantitative sections.
For the military ASVAB test, I can tutor every topic except engineering.

OTHER SERVICES:
Planning and editing papers up to graduate-level theses, designing research projects, and preparing applications for college admissions, scholarships, IRB, etc.
Training effective studying, test-taking, and research skills.
