Experience

I've been a writing tutor for high school and college kids for ten years, five of which I spent working with students at the University of Florida's Reading and Writing Center. My goal as a tutor is to help foster the skills students need in order to live up to their full potential and become the best writers they can be. I aim to help students first understand what their assignments are asking for. Then, I help them figure out their individual skills and background that can aid them in their writing process. Last, I help them to develop the most concise, straightforward response they can. I believe getting a student organized is the key to success in writing, along with having a supportive mentor to encourage and guide them throughout the process, all the way to the finishing touches of revising and editing. All of these tools are crucial in nurturing the confidence students need to feel empowered to become strong writers. I currently live in Austin, TX, and in my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, and traveling.
