What I like most about tutoring is seeing the “lightbulb“ go off in a student’s eyes when they make a connection and begin to understand the patterns of grammar and sentence structure. I try to make tutoring fun, coming up with real-world and humorous examples, not just because it makes the time go buy more quickly, but because this is a good way to help people to cement concepts in their minds and to apply those concepts when they are on their own or taking a test. I minored in English an... Read more

Hi! I'm new to Pennsylvania. I previously lived with my family in Utah, where I taught Special Education.

I'm living and working in State College right now and need to occupy myself during the grueling wait that is the medical school application cycle. Why am I qualified to help you? I TA'd classes at Wesleyan University on my way to graduating with a 3.66 GPA (I'm human!). I was a paid tutor briefly in this time as well. I have worked several research jobs that all involved patient and parent education. Bio and Psych were easily my strongest subjects in school. Do you need help in these class... Read more
