I'm a graduate of Binghamton University with a degree in English and Creative Writing. While in school, I worked as a private writing tutor for adults of all different levels. Through this experience, I found that I really loved working with people to help improve their learning experiences. After graduating, I worked abroad in southern Spain teaching English as a Second Language subjects to students ages 10-16. In this position, I planned creative lessons tailored to the various levels of my classrooms and enjoyed finding interesting ways to engage them. While I really enjoyed being in a classroom, I missed the one on one aspect of tutoring and I found myself picking up extra opportunities after work to do so. My experience has made me comfortable assessing a students needs and planning individualized lessons to help them succeed. I really enjoy teaching Writing, Literature, ESL and Spanish and I believe that my enthusiasm for these subjects is what makes me a great tutor.
