Education

A.B. Harvard College, Anthropology, 2012 GPA: 3.95/4.0

Experience

I am a recent Harvard College graduate with experience in collaborative and dialogic educational pedagogy. During college, I worked collaboratively with other students to develop trenchant thesis statements and structured argumentation for long (20+ page) essays. I am a skilled writer who, given my liberal arts background, has experience writing in several academic fields, including history, literature, expository writing, and Spanish. I can tutor in these fields at the high school level, including for tests such as the SATs (I and II, including math portion) and APs, and at the introductory college level. I am interested in tutoring because I love to teach and plan on becoming a professor following graduate school. As a newcomer to formal tutoring for cash, I emphasize my other dialogic experiences inside and out of the classroom, where I find a great sense of purpose and satisfaction. Other Qualifications: -Academic publication in preparation for journal published by Duke University Press -9+ years experience with Spanish, including summer stays in Spain, Perú, and Panamá -High School Valedictorian - 4.9 GPA; 8 AP Courses completed with 4-5s (Biology, Chemistry, English Language, English Literature, Spanish, European History, United States History, Calculus) -SATs - 2300 I am flexible with transportation and can meet along the MBTA.
