Experience Summary
I have a Bahcelor's Degree from the University of Minnesota and have spent the majority of my time working with students who need help in areas like writing, reading, comprehension and essay-composing strengths. I have worked at the Normandale Community College Writing Center when it was just first starting out, and have, in more recent years, acted as a TA for the Slavic Department at the U of M.
Teaching Style
I believe that instead of forcing students to fit into rigorous standards which might inhibit their learning, teachers can and should learn to take different, out of the box approaches to every tutoring session. Having a one-on-one lesson is a great opportunity for me to explore what learning style is best for you, and we can work together to develop a comfortable schedule and set of exercises which will be not only educational, but also enjoyable for you.
My Hobbies
In my spare time I like to read and I draw to relax. My less professional hobbies include bothering my cat and thinking up of new recipes and food combinations to try! (My latest favorite is french fries and Guacamole!)
