Experience Summary
I was a tutor during both my graduate and undergraduate schooling. During my undergraduate tutoring experience I worked with students on various types of writing assignments including science reports, doctoral papers, and research papers. I also have some experience tutoring ESL and have worked with young children as well as high school and college students. I have a BA in both English and German, and can tutor in both areas, but I excel in writing, research, and composition.
Teaching Style
I believe in encouraging students' ideas and helping them take control of the learning process. Many students are intimidated by unfamiliar material, and need affirmation and guidance in order to succeed. I am a patient and considerate person and I have the interpersonal skills needed to establish a trust relationship with students. Despite my easy going nature, I am rigorous and hold students to high yet attainable standards.
