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 result-oriented. I can assist rote memorization of facts. I can shepherd critical thinking, perceptive reading, and clear writing. 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 vers
