Profile Details

Experience Summary

Throughout my four years at Marquette I tutored in three programs including the federally recognized TRIO program to help advance the college prospects of inner city minorities. I tutored in high school and college level math, science, social studies, English and literature. At Marquette I earned a BA in history and theology. I also studied abroad and at Marquette in Italian language, and now can read and speak Italian with advanced conversational fluency. My senior thesis will be published in Milwaukee History. Most recently I have taught Street Law, a legal education program for juniors and seniors in high school.

Teaching Style

I have been told I am a patient and imaginative teacher. I have been a camp counselor at a nature camp for six summers and have tutored and taught for an additional 5 years. In this time I learned how to help children learn, and how to make it fun. For many children learning how to teach them is the hardest part, i.e. to use visual aids, or to make use of kinetic learning. With many years of experience I have learned to identify and then utilize the appropriate learning style to achieve the maximum level of improvement.
