Hello, prospective student! I have 3 years of online and in-person experience teaching people of all ages! Whether you are learning the basics of the English language, improving your grammar, writing an essay, or working on your resume, I am here to help you through a conversational and interactive approach. My professional experience involves utilizing evidence-based training that focuses on speaking, listening, reading and writing. I excel at individualizing lessons to suit your personal needs. My passion is creating a fun and friendly learning atmosphere that will help to build a stronger confidence n your English skills. I graduated from Utah State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Studies (emphasis in English, minor in Sociology).

I am passionate about helping other people and having them being successful. Later on in life i would love to become a teacher so this is my first step. I have been dancing since the age of three and I now do cheerleading so I can also teach tumbling too. I have my own equiptment I can bring if you dont have any or I can bring it for additional equipment. I can also babysit for children around the ages 5-12. I am really outgoing and fun to be around. It would be great if you can consider me to do what I offer.

I am a trained tutor with a BA in Written Arts and Classical Studies, and 4+ years of experience tutoring students of all ages. I work particularly on supporting students as they develop writing, reading, and studying skills. In my work I meet students where they are in their academic process and collaborate with them to build achievable goals. I work to change student outcomes--not just the grade on one paper or test; this work is not simply editing, but rather engaging with the roots of students’ academic struggles and joys and building up from there. I believe in supporting students as they interrogate their own academic processes and their own ideas--and do this by leading them through rounds of Socratic questioning, free writing, and showing examples of model work. I have worked at the Bard College Learning Commons as a tutor for over four years, where I have been a peer tutor and Writing Fellow. I am also TESOL certified and have worked at Bard College as an ELL specific tutor. Through the Bard Prison Initiative, I have gained experience working with "non-traditionally aged" students. I am now employed by Bard College as the Tutor Coordinator, a job that allows me not only to tutor, but also to support, collaborative with, and hold training workshops for the undergraduate tutors at the college.
