Howdy! I am a current student of Ohio University. I am working towards a Bachelor of Arts in English with a focus on literature, especially concerning the English Reformation. In addition, I have already received a certificate in East Asian Studies and am pursuing minors in History and World Religions. While in college, I tend to prioritize my schoolwork above all, but in 2018 I was able to spend 6 weeks working as a writing lab tutor for Ohio University's OPIE (Ohio Program of Intensive English) program. During those 6 weeks I had the wonderful opportunity to meet with several different undergraduate ESL/ELL students and offer guidance on all parts of the academic writing process, such as: brainstorming topics, outlining and organization, proofreading for grammar and spelling errors or inconsistencies, polishing and finalization, etc. In addition, I tailored my feedback to each student according to their personality as well as their individual English level. Outside of tutoring ESL/ELL students, during my high school years I also volunteered with a team of two other students to teach German to first graders at our local elementary school. We not only created our own lesson plans for each class, but also prepared all of our own teaching materials and managed to keep the first graders' attention for full 30-minutes.
If you cannot yet tell, my favorite subjects to tutor are languages. This includes learning a foreign language, but I also offer tutoring on English literature and composition at the college level and below. This also includes American literature at all levels, as well as Reading, Reading Comprehension and Writing at all levels. In addition, I am also certified through Varsity Tutors to offer tutoring on Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Basic Computer Literacy, U.S. History, AP U.S. Government & Politics, AP English Literature and Composition, AP German Language and Culture, ACT Writing, as well as non-AP levels of German and Mandarin Chinese. Thanks to my varied experience, I feel comfortable working with students of all ages and have no preference regarding a students' level of education. That is to say, everyone is welcome! I truly believe that access to education is the deciding factor in predicting a person's potential to achieve stability and happiness in their lives, so I am especially passionate about offering online tutoring to potential students. If you chose me as your online tutor, I hope that we can work together toward a shared goal: making you (or your child) the BEST and BRIGHTEST student of 2020.
