Experience
I attended both Yale University and Harvard Law School. I really enjoy helping students improve their grades and test scores by tutoring. I have experience teaching science and math at the middle school level in Mississippi with the Teach For America program. As a participant in this program, I also led development sessions for novice teachers. During law school, I also worked on the side writing and editing English and Math standardized tests. These tests have now been implemented by hundreds of schools around the country. After I completed law school, I missed helping students one-on-one, which is why I am now tutoring. I greatly enjoy helping the students improve their grades by working with them in subjects they are struggling in. I can tutor various subjects, including math, reading, English, writing, and many others. I also greatly enjoy helping students prepare for standardized tests, including the LSAT, SAT, HSPT, ISEE, and others. When not tutoring, I enjoy learning about food culture, science, and technology. I also enjoy playing games, watching cartoons on television (especially Adventure Time!), and making a good cup of coffee.
