Private tutor in New York, NY

Education

I have a B.A. from Eugene Lang College, the New School. I graduated in May 2017 and double majored in Philosophy and Literary Studies. Within Literary Studies I chose the Literature "track", of the two tracks available (the other is Writing, whose concentrations are Fiction, NonFiction, and Poetry). Outside of my majors I took French German and Politics courses.

Experience

I scored a 4 on the AP Psych Exam. My senior thesis at Lang was on Frantz Fanon. Other courses I took and thoroughly enjoyed were Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, Nietzsche, Care of the Self (in which we read Foucault's second and third volumes of his History of Sexuality), Proust, Race/Ethnicity/Class/Gender, Sex, Gender, and Sexuality

Hobbies

I am very much devoted to and passionate about the Humanities, broadly, but more specifically philosophy, literature, and history. I had the great privilege of attending a small liberal arts wherein I honed my critical thinking skills, and where I became a writer. My philosophical training is more continental than it is "analytical", which is to say I'm of little help when it comes to the math associated with logic. But I can carefully follow arguments and identify weaknesses in them.
