About Me

I earned an MS in International Communication from St. Johns University. After working for several years, I am changing careers to Speech-Language Pathology because I enjoy working with people and using clinical applications of psychology, language, and communication to help others to find their voice. I am passionate about learning and communication, and the role that psychology and language play in the learning process. Since high school, I have tutored elementary through college-level students in a variety of subjects (primarily liberal arts.) Everyone has a unique learning style. As a tutor, I identify and utilize study techniques that each student feels works best for them. When a student is not sure how to approach a subject, I gain their perspective and guide them through breaking down the material into manageable sections. My ultimate goal is to enhance a students learning experience as much as possible. Learning is a two-way street, and I love when students give me the opportunity to learn from them as well!

Q&A with Jessica

I try to highlight real-life applications, or discover how it might be relevant to the student and/or their interests. What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material? A great way to test your understanding of a concept is to "teach" it to someone else. This helps reinforce your understanding and highlights parts that still need to be reviewed.
