Matana: Surprise tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a recent Magna Cum Laude graduate of Georgia College. I love working with young people and empowering them with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. I am a Liberal Studies graduate who earned an interdisciplinary degree and am therefore skilled in a wide variety of disciplines including writing, literature, test prep, English, poetry, grammar, performance, and public speaking among other disciplines. I love young people and I have worked with a variety of young people from different backgrounds. Most recently, I spent the summer working with gifted students from all over the county at a gifted camp with Duke (University) TIP. Before that, I was teaching health classes to middle and high school students in Macon.

In my free time, I love to cuddle up with a good book (I'm currently reading "After Dark" by Haruki Murakami). And if I'm not reading or blogging, you can find me at a local Atlanta coffeehouse performing some of my poetry or spoken word pieces for open mic night. As a past successful student myself, I know that great mentors and tutors are a key component to success and I love working hard to be that helping hand and enlightening voice to students. I focus on meeting students where they're are, setting goals, and overcoming challenges and working hard to make even bigger goals for the future.
