I graduated with a 3.15 GPA from Colgate University in 2013 and hold a BA in English. I attended Dickinson College for 3 semesters, from 2009 to 2010, and then transferred to Colgate University to finish my undergraduate career, graduating with the above credentials. In the summer of 2011 I took a Food Science and Cultures class at the University of Connecticut's Waterbury campus for college credit in the sciences.
Experience
Relevant Experience: - Girl Scout Troop Leader, 2010 - Children's Summer Camp Lifeguard, 2010 - 2011 - Hamilton Center for the Arts classroom supervisor, 2011-2012 - Babysitter, intermittently 2005-present SAT Test Scores: - Reading 670 - Math 620 - Writing 700 - Literature (Subject Test) 730 Helping children learn is one of the purest joys I have known. Being a figure of assistance, instruction and support is fulfilling and rewarding, and it is a great accomplishment to do even a little bit to further the development of a young child's mind. I have experience with young children ages 4-12 from years of lifeguarding for summer camps, teaching arts and crafts classes, serving as a Girl Scout Troop Leader, and babysitting. I was and still am a diligent, interested student of English Literature and I intend to get my Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education. I connect well with children as a supporting figure and am eager to make a difference in individuals’ learning experiences, helping as much as I can where needed. I am available for tutoring for up to 6 hours during the work week (after 5pm) and up to 6 hours on the weekend during any time slots. I am free year round for tutoring appointments during these hours. Please don't hesitate to contact me to schedule an appointment or to ask general questions. I am happy to help and eager to meet you!
