After those experiences I plane to attend graduate school or Medical School.
Experience
My first memories houston">tutoring involve the younger students at a Russian School I was a part of in Austin growing up. After that I was a volunteer houston">tutor after school in high school to younger high school students. Then in college I began houston">tutoring formally at the Writing Center as a writing consultant and to school aged kids in math and science.
Approach
I remember being in ESL classes as an elementary aged student and being confused as to why I was there and why I didn't read as quickly as my peers. Now I am always reading nonfiction books outside of my college courses for fun. I strongly believe that some students just need a lot more practice with a patient instructor to overcome their challenges. I do not believe in the banking concept of education; I impose the problem-posing method of education where I work with the students to learn.
