Out of Your Vulnerabilities Will Come Your Strength
I'm currently in a writing tutor fellowship at Loyola, which you can only be nominated for by an English teacher. As an undergraduate student, I can offer the insight of a peer while having the experience of a tutor. I enjoy when my tutees connect with English as much as I do. Tutoring is about helping you attain skills to become a better writer so there's just as much informing as there is helping. The outcome is that we both learn something every session. I'm experienced in drafting/inv... Read more

Mack
Math, Economics, Poli-Sci, & Writing
When I went to college I wasn't sure what I wanted to study, I had so many different passions and dreams. I wanted to be a doctor, a businessman, and a film director, but there weren't any programs that led to me being all of those--I had to choose, so I chose economics. I really enjoy economics because it combines several subjects that I'm really interested in; math, poli-sci, and business. Despite the fact that I could only follow one dream in school, I could still follow the rest of my dre... Read more
