I have a High School diploma and graduated with a 3.1 GPA taking honors and advanced courses. I am a Junior in college majoring in Philosophy with a current 3.9 GPA. I have spent two year tutoring at a low resourced high-school in the south side of Chicago helping to bring 15 students up by two letter grades in English and Language Arts. I tend to take the Socratic method of teaching lessons. I make sure that my student/client is learning well enough to be able to do assignments and tests without assistance.
I have been tutoring for 7 years. 2 years have been with high school students in English and Language Arts. 1 year has been with college students in Philosophy. 1 year has been with college students in English, Writing, and Creative Writing. 3 years has been in high school and college level Spanish in oral and writing communication.
