Experience
Previous SAT and math tutoring experience with Academic Aptos. Tutored a variety of subjects (running the gamut from math to writing) to both individuals and groups. Previous writing tutor for Writer Coach Connection. I worked with a student each semester to raise writing proficiency, develop critical thinking skills, and build academic confidence through regular mentoring. Worked one on one to develop their ideas and appropriately synthesize them into a clear, smooth, and coherent result. Moreover, fostered their ability to self-evaluate and their editing skills. I enjoy teaching people (especially how to write). SAT: 2270 CR:770 M: 750 W: 750 GRE Analytic writing: 6, 6 GRE Verbal: 169 Relevant classes include (but are not limited to): Theory of Knowledge, Philosophy of Science, Philosophy of Mathematics, Philosophy of Language, Theory of Meaning, Philosophical Methods, Philosophy of Mind, Aristotle, Modern Philosophy, Ancient Philosophy
