Experience Summary
I have tutored middle & high school students as contracted tutor, freelancer and volunteer for over a decade. My Bachelor of Arts in English & American Literature and Creative Writing honed my sharp eye for proof reading and editorial work while strengthening my critical thinking and analytical skills.
Teaching Style
I enjoy adapting to each student's individual learning style and needs. Whether auditory or visual learners or a combination a/v student, I look forward to engaging pupils with methodologies tailored to their needs and strengths. I try to push students slightly but never too far outside of their learning comfort zone, encouraging them to focus just a little longer, to progress in measurable indicators.
My Hobbies
I enjoy writing, reading, yoga & hiking.
