Experience
I am a recent college grad with 7+ years of academic tutoring experience with students of all ages. My areas of emphasis are in Elementary-College English/Writing (includes research writing), Elementary/Middle School Math, Statistics, Standardized Test Prep, and Music Theory, Composition, and Performance. Throughout my time in undergrad, I have developed research skills through various independent and group research projects. I have presented at national conferences and have experience tutoring people on research writing and applied statistics. I also worked at my university's writing center and was a volunteer teacher/counselor in various professional settings (i.e. hospitals, community agencies, and schools). Throughout my academic, work, and volunteer experiences, I have completed multiple trainings on teaching/conflict resolution techniques and gained experiences working with children, adolescents, and adults with special needs. Overall, I love working with people of all ages and want to help individuals achieve and exceed their goals no matter the barriers that may present themselves. Other than my academic work, I also have 13+ years of experience playing guitar and bass and have extensive experience performing in professional ensembles around the Midwest. I have experience in a variety of styles (blues, jazz, classical, flamenco, folk, rock), a working knowledge of music theory, and am an active songwriter. I am open to giving music lessons to individuals or groups of any age and any level of experience. I am currently enrolled at Rutgers University to begin a Masters of Social Work program in Fall of 2016. I am pursuing the clinical social work track and want to work with adolescents and young adults in educational or community settings. I have time to tutor for up to 25 hours per week and can start as soon as possible. If interested or you have any questions about my background, please contact me via e-mail. I hope to work with you soon!
