Experience
I am studying at Brown University, where I am currently in the process of receiving my B.A. in English. I consider writing to be my passion, and I love to help students improve their writing. I enjoy helping students become the best they can be in writing, reading, editing, and thinking critically. I have helped a number of students become confident writers with the ability to express their thoughts and feelings in beautiful paragraphs.While the focus of my studies is primarily English, I have experience tutoring in mathematics and test preparation. I have assisted many students in recovering from low scores in their math courses. I truly enjoy being able to share my passion with my students, as well as encourage them to look within and get in touch with their own passions. I believe it is crucial to establish a connection with the students, in order to build long lasting relationships that facilitate personal growth and development.Outside of academia, I enjoy learning about music theory. I am a singer who is involved in a number of different singing groups around the university campus. I also enjoy playing ice hockey and skiing. A personal goal of mine is to write a picture book and have it published.
