Experience Summary
I am 23 year old recent graduate from George Mason University. I have a major in English Literature with a concentration in Creative Writing, and a minor in Secondary Education. During my Senior year I taught full time at Edgar Allen Poe Middle School as one of two teachers in an English classroom. I have tutored elementary students in reading and writing during a nanny job. I attended Langley High School, and performed strongly in all of my English coursework.
Teaching Style
I believe in allowing the student to work most of the problems out for themselves. While explaining the rules of a particular word problem or paper topic is important, the student will only learn if he or she is able to come to the right conclusion through dedicating the time and effort into the project that they are working on. I also believe that every student is capable of creating something unique to his or her own style. Helping a student grow individually through reading, writing, and understanding of texts is one of my main goals at all times.
My Hobbies
I am always reading and writing, and enjoy going to new places and meeting new people. I love to have adventures with my favorite fictional characters, but I also want to have some of my own! I am physically active, and love to travel.
