Experience
Hi! I am a student at Drexel University in Philadelphia. I am studying for a bachelor's degree in psychology, and will move on and study for my master's degree in psychology as well. My previous experiences working with children include several years as a camp counselor, and individual tutoring for students trying to pass the GED exam for a program in my community. I have a great love of education, and nothing pleases me more than instilling the same love of education and desire to learn in one of my students. I believe that teaching by providing life references to the material and provoking critical thought processes is an effective way to approach learning. I also believe in approaching the student as an individual that learns in their own way. An additional thought I have about learning is that we need to learn the path to the answer, the "Why?", instead of only learning the end point. The path is what gets us to where we are going. I feel that students should learn in a comfortable and stress-free environment for optimum retention. I am able to tutor students in reading, writing, essay editing, literature, grammar and mechanics, European history, English, psychology, and French 1 through French 4. In my free time, I enjoy running, reading, and experimenting in the kitchen.
