Experience
I have been a tutor at the college level for the past three years at the University of New Mexico. I have worked with a wide range of students, from incoming freshman, to upper level honors students, to graduate students, to English language learners, thus teaching me to be an adaptable tutor. I listen to what students want help with, gauge their needs based on their writing, and understand their teachers’ expectations. Throughout my time as a tutor, I have honed my skills so that I am able to teach students as I assist them with their writing. By understanding students’ individual learning styles, I modify explanations accordingly, so that students don’t just edit their work, but rather learn to improve their current piece of writing and their writing in the future. I have also been an instructor at the college level for two years. And finally, as a Doctoral student in American Studies, I have been writing at the university level for over seven years, and I am beginning to work on my dissertation.
