A humanities-oriented tutor with three years of experience teaching writing and a classical liberal arts education, I am prepared to tutor in a wide variety of subjects across the humanities and social sciences, to help you sharpen your writing skills, and to empower you with the skills needed to tackle the most stubborn standardized test questionsincluding those on the GRE Verbal and SAT Writing sections. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies and Sociology from Sarah Lawrence College, a writing-intensive liberal arts college, where I amassed a portfolio of over 500 pages worth of research papers. I have also given several talks and presentations over the years including a TEDx talk. My style of tutoring is collaborative and student-centered. I believe in meeting the student at his or her own level and building up from there. I am passionate about education, in particular subjects like writing, history, and sociology, and I will begin to pursue a PhD this fall in the hopes of one day becoming a professor. When I am not reading for my research, I try to find time to read for fun; I also enjoy spending time with my dogs and drinking good coffee.
