Fun Facts
I am a jack of all trades. I obviously love reading and writing, but I enjoy all sorts of arts. I was a competitive ballroom dancer in college, an actor and a singer in high school, and almost received my minor in Cinema Studies. I've been speaking French since I was six and started learning Italian last year. I've played tennis since I was eight, playing on varsity in high school and in college. My newest endeavor is cooking and baking! I hope to be able to take some cooking classes soon!
About Me
I recently finished my Master's Degree at DePaul University in English Literature. I had a paper featured in their graduate conference last spring. I also have a Bachelor's Degree in English from oakland-university">Oakland University. From there, I graduated Cum Laude from Oakland with Departmental Honors. My ultimate goal is to either get my Ph.D in English and teach at the University level, or write a novel! Most likely both!
Experience
I did community service chicago">tutoring all throughout high school, mostly focusing on younger children. As my knowledge grew, I strove to teach at higher levels. Very often I find myself editing school papers and cover letters for friends and colleagues. I enjoy helping people better understand writing and literature as I think both are valuable skills. Working for Frog chicago">Tutoring gives me the opportunity to help foster those skills in others.
Approach
Fostering passion when it comes to writing and reading-comprehension/illinois/chicago">reading comprehension is essential in mastering the English language. I believe that every student deserves excellent communication skills, so I attempt to bring this passion to teaching also. For writing, it's not only about pointing out what is wrong, but teaching why it is wrong, and how it can be easily fixed. For literature, it's treating works as a puzzle to be unlocked. Diligent and persistent effort is the key to both teaching and learning.
