Hobbies
I have experience working with both peers and younger children in various capacities. I believe that my previous experience as a tutor and my work as an Irish dance teacher fully qualifies me for further tutoring jobs. My personal philosophy is that every child should have the opportunity to reach their full potential, and I will do everything possible to help my clients succeed. Although I am comfortable tutoring in a wide range of subjects, I am especially interested in science, having participated in numerous science fairs throughout middle school and high school. My science fair career culminated in the spring of 2014 when I was chosen as a finalist at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. In addition to basic tutoring, I am able to help students brainstorm science fair ideas and get a head-start on their projects for the next school year. Having just gone through the extensive college application process last year, I would also be happy to help with filling out/organizing applications and writing/editing essays.Thank you for your consideration!
