"Hello! My name is Amelia. I recently graduated magna cum laude with my bachelor's degree in Neuroscience, during which I tutored peers on writing and anatomy & physiology. During that time, I received training from the university's tutoring center, so I have the formal knowledge of how to approach hard subjects and/or unenthusiastic students, in addition to the real-life experience I gained while actually working with tutees.

Throughout my degree, I discovered that I greatly enjoyed tutoring, because I was able to connect with students and make a positive difference in their understanding of the material. I could impart all that I had learned, like study skills, how to adapt your learning style to a specific subject, and how to prepare for different kinds of tests. Additionally, changing my tutoring strategies to fit the individual student was a focus of mine, because each person understands things in a different way. I am able to explain concepts at multiple different levels, and in multiple different ways. I can also help with memorization, because I've come up with many methods to help myself memorize things like vocabulary, scientific theories, dates, and lists. When tutoring writing, I helped students brainstorm, create strong theses, learn correct grammar, and develop their own style/voice. I've worked on everything from lab reports to argumentative essays to literature reviews. I enjoy the writing process and helping others learn to enjoy writing as well. At the very least, I will help you earn better grades on your papers!

I excel in one-on-one tutoring, as I'm better able to connect with the student and understand their learning style. My belief is that a genuine connection goes a long way in tutoring, so I strive to make one with each of my students. I feel confident in my ability to help you or your child with whatever subject they are struggling in, whether that's English, writing, science, history, literature, or math.

Please reach out if you have any other questions or concerns!" less...
