I am an older student who has recently graduated with a degree in English from the University of St. Thomas. I will be starting an MA in English this September in Ireland. My long-term goal is a PhD and professorship in English. I believe my recent graduation and age places me in a unique place to know both the demands of school and possess the maturity needed to provide students with reasoned advice and assistance in their studies. I did just so with a foreign born student last summer. With my help, he passed his GED and was able to continue his education; He has since started courses at HCC in the field of nursing.

I am patient and good-humored. I have diverse interests outside of my main field of English literature; for example, history and social studies. Outside advanced mathematics and music, I feel competent tutoring most students in need of help.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

In closing, I like a good cup of coffee or tea. If you want to meet and see if I will work as your tutor, I only charge for a cup of either one.
