Experience
I am a tutor with extensive experience studying and teaching history and English. I am currently in the process of completing a master's degree in diplomacy and international relations from Seton Hall University. I graduated with honors from Virginia Commonwealth University with a bachelor's degree in political science and a minor in religious studies and economics. I am comfortable tutoring students in a variety of different subjects, including reading, writing, phonics, American history, geography, comparative government and politics, world religions, religious studies, global politics, and human geography. I also specialize in helping students prepare for standardized tests. I took many AP courses when I was in high school and am thus able to tutor students in preparing for the AP exams. I began tutoring when I was in high school. I tutored students at a middle school level by helping them complete homework assignments they were struggling with. My philosophy as a tutor emphasizes helping students gain confidence. I realize that it can take time to build up a student's confidence, so luckily I am a very patient individual. In my free time, I enjoy visiting bookstores, having tea with my friends, reading, visiting new cities, and attending events on my college campus.
