I'm a college student studying English at Kenyon College. I offer my services in an effort to make education more personal and less standardized. My experience with tutoring has primarily been with close friends and family. As soon as my younger brother started school, my parents gave me the task of helping him with his schoolwork and homework, in every possible discipline. I learned a lot from this experience, and I think it supplied me with the fundamental skills of one-on-one teaching. In addition, I have tutored several of my brother s friends through elementary and middle school, especially on reading and language arts courses. Lastly, I have experience with peer-tutoring, as I often assisted my high-school classmates with writing, editing, and constructing analytical essays and research papers.
