I am an environmental reporter based in New York. My articles have appeared in New Scientist, Scientific American, Psychology Today, Popular Science, OnEarth Magazine and Smart Planet. I was also a copy editor with a large publishing house for two years where I used my spelling and grammar skills to fact check and proof read manuscripts. I love to travel and learn about people and the world and spent two years living in Paris, France where I was an English tutor to French children and adults. I also co-host a podcast about fairy tales called Tabled Fables. Each month we discuss a different tale to find out what the story means, how it's evolved and what makes it stick. I like to help people learn about English by exploring their interests. For example, if you are a fan of economics we can read The Economist and discuss world politics. If you prefer to talk about animals we can create an

Throughout my undergraduate career, I have tutored fellow students in my major, designing tools to help them succeed on exams and assignments. In addition, students taking various courses have asked me to edit their papers and guide their studying. Outside the realm of college, I have previously been an assistant teacher for early intervention and preschool children. I am currently an assistant teacher for elementary school students. I enjoy working with people, and I enjoy using my strong academic abilities to help others succeed in school. I consider myself a friendly and down-to-earth person, eager to give over my positivity, dedication and support to those that I work with. I look forward to giving over these ideals to my future students.

As Academic Advisor at Hunter College, I provided one-on-one tutoring focused on thesis development, essay writing, and critical reading. I am attuned to the craft of writing, particularly helping writers distill ideas and compose how those ideas can best be expressed. Subject-wise, I have received degrees studying history and international relations from elite liberal arts schools. I have also worked as a radio and print journalist. In short, I am well versed in reading comprehension, formal analysis, research, and writing - most strongly in the field of social sciences and humanities. I prefer one-on-one sessions so I can be attentive to particular needs of the student, especially when it comes to reading and writing. I work collaboratively in the sense that I like to observe how a student best engages with the material and encourage that method for best results. I am both process- and

I have tutored kids for two years at a elementary school. pre-k to 3rd graders. my duty was to help them out with homework, math, reading, anything they learned threw out the day with their home room teacher, any other subject they were struggling in I helped them get a better understanding of it. I have also worked over a year at a retail marketing as a cashier, and at a pharmacy as a tech. I learned a lot about handling customers, how to handle people what their needs are and how to deal with certain people alot about medication and etc. How to understand them and get them to understand you.

Ahoy! My name is Julia, and I am a Junior at Yale. I grew up in NYC, prancing around in coffee shops, studying with my friends at 6am the day of a big test. Many students, myself included, learn best when they wade through complexity with other people. I am here to help! I (not so fondly) remember hours of SAT, SAT2, ACT, and AP practice, and am very familiar with the format of standardized tests. I specialize in test prep, as well as Literature/Language, Social Studies/History, and Math (through pre-calculus). As a Humanities major, reading and writing is my food and water! I would be happy to help proofread your papers, brainstorm ideas, or work on structuring effective college essays. I have taught in many different settings - public schools, 3rd grade LD classrooms, journalism workshops for high schoolers, after-school tutoring for middle schoolers, to name a few! I have als

I am probably the one tutor on these pages who is internationally published with a major, front-line house. Here I refer to the biography I wrote of an ambassador named Bullitt, who worked for Roosevelt against Stalin. This means, simply, that I have tons of experience in writing fast, in rewriting much, and under deadline. Note too that this often requires research. That I have done for some time... My experiences are perhaps too wide for this enclosure. I have 5 degrees, in American history and world history and French and Spanish, plus experience in writing and publishing. But my best experience involves my being able to take an overworked, frazzled student under deadline and teaching him or her how to pause, focus, and then get caught up and then get ahead. As Ben Franklin would say, we have to learn how to "make haste slowly." I teach a student to be calm, take a breath, a
