Private tutor in Danville, CA
Education
Cumulative GPA of 3.83 at UC Berkeley, BA in Comparative Literature, Minor in Theater and Performance Studies.
Experience
I am a passionate and dedicated bay area educator and literacy advocate on my way to a credential program. I understand what it is like to be frustrated that your hard work is not coming across, and I furthermore know the thrill of overcoming that challenge to become a tangibly stronger writer! I'm interested in helping students improve by setting and achieving palpable goals - whether over several sessions, or in just one paper they need inspiration on. I graduated in May with highest distinction from UC Berkeley, studying Comparative Literature, specializing in Ancient Greek and Spanish. For 5 years, I have worked with students age 6-20 on improving their writing, and have been a contributing editor to the Comparative Literature undergrad journal on campus, as well as an editor for a licensed Disney Book Distributor. Other fun work with youth includes directing a summer youth camp each summer, currently working as a Musical Theater teacher for ages 3-17 at the Berkeley Playhouse, and directing a Greek Dance class at UC Berkeley.
