Tutoring Services - Math & Writing

 One of my biggest pet peeves is when people say they don’t like math, they are bad at math, or math doesn’t matter in the real world. If you’ve said or thought any of these things, it means you just haven’t found the way of learning and appreciating math that makes the most sense to YOU. Hopefully, I can make learning math a little (or a lot) less painful for you.

 Writing can take on so many shapes and forms. Whether it’s a school paper, a research article, or a full novel manuscript, it’s important to clearly and efficiently get your point across while still making it enjoyable to read. Not to mention, having good grammar. I want to share my years of experience as a writing tutor and continue helping students hone their writing skills.

 I graduated from Colby College in 2015 with a degree in mathematics with a concentration in statistics as well as minors in computer science and education. As a college student, I was a TA for college-level statistics courses, and I did my month-long teaching practicum as a middle school math teacher. In high school, I helped other students in my math courses, including AP Calculus B/C, AP Statistics, Pre-Calculus, Geometry, Algebra, and Pre-Algebra. Additionally, I’ve been a volunteer tutor since 2019, working with kids in grades 4-7. 

 As a student at Colby College, I worked as a writing tutor for three years. Colby’s writing program requires tutors to complete a 1-semester course in tutoring methodology and ethics. This position involved 1-1 sessions with college students where we would brainstorm topics, develop outlines, read papers aloud, review for grammar and citations, and revise for clarity. As the Manager of Research Data & Operations at Aberdeen Strategy and Research, I regularly wrote, reviewed, and edited research content as well as helped our analyst team develop their personal writing skills.
