Obi
Ivy League SAT/ACT Tutor, Specializing in Reading and Writing
Hi! My name is Obi. I am currently a junior in college, majoring in Psychology with a concentration in Education, and when I was younger, my mother used to ground me from reading books. Like any other child, when my older sister got into trouble, she was grounded from visiting her friends' houses or watching TV. But I was grounded from reading books. I would sneak my library books home from school in my sister's backpack (since my mom would never think to look for books there). It was a serio... Read more

Writing creatively and otherwise
I have a Master's in Education as well as an MFA in Poetry and been published in a literary journal. I have taught in the Peace Corps and from 7th grade to upper level undergraduate classes with 10 years teaching experience. My thoughts on writing are that grammar and punctuation are important, but are involved in the editing process. Before these aspects of writing can come into play, the thought process must be there. Sentence thought must logically flow from one sentence to the next. ... Read more

ESL Teacher Experienced in Spanish Culture and Language
I have spent the last two years studying the history, culture, and modern political climate of Guatemala. In college, I studied Spanish and Architecture, focusing on how informal housing settlements ("slums") occur in countries like Guatemala and others in Central America. Through this study, I was exposed to Mayan languages (K'iche' and Kaqchikel) and the importance of literacy and education advocacy. I began teaching ESL as a volunteer and it has become my greatest passion. Being able to te... Read more

I provided tools such as print outs, examples of various content such as the proper way to give a speech and/or prep... Read more
