"In November of 2021, I received a notification that I obtained a full-ride scholarship to Colgate University through Questbridge. This was a culmination of SAT prepping, taking care of my grades, and proofreading my essays, both for college and high-school assignments. Time goes by quickly, and I now have a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Relations! During my time in college, I learned to tailor my essays, proofread academic work, conduct research, and write professionally. My proudest achievement during college was the Trimmer Narrative Excellence award, in which I received praise for my prose and storytelling abilities. I am a communicator, and I can help you to communicate better, as I have a lifetime of experience that I can use to teach you how to navigate essay-writing, fluency, and communication hurdles.
I have extensive experience tutoring my peers on course issues. Previous tutoring experience includes writing and rhetoric workshops, where I conducted one-on-one meetings with peers to identify strengths & shortcomings in their writing. Also, I have tutored high-school students on SAT prep — where I often use the Feynman method, encouraging students to self-explain the material. I have found that this method allows students to reach more effective learning pathways that last, rather than stricter methods like cramming and memorizing concepts.
I am excited to work with tutees and figure out how to improve your essay prep. My lessons are High school and university students preparing for TOEFL, IELTS, Duolingo English Test, SAT/ACT English, or academic English exams, Spanish-speaking students who think in Spanish but need to write and speak clearly in English, and International/first-gen students who want help with college, scholarship, or grad school essays. I welcome other requests, too!" less...
