I'm Adrian. I'm a philosophy student headed to USC this fall, and I tutor writing and humanities. In high school I got 5s on AP English Lit, AP Lang, AP U.S. History, and AP Psychology, and I've been tutoring for about two years, mostly high school students working on essays, AP prep, and college applications.
The reason I tutor the way I do is philosophy. Philosophy taught me that most of the time, when a student is stuck on an essay or a reading, the problem isn't the assignment. It's that...
I'm Adrian. I'm a philosophy student headed to USC this fall, and I tutor writing and humanities. In high school I got 5s on AP English Lit, AP Lang, AP U.S. History, and AP Psychology, and I've been tutoring for about two years, mostly high school students working on essays, AP prep, and college applications.
The reason I tutor the way I do is philosophy. Philosophy taught me that most of the time, when a student is stuck on an essay or a reading, the problem isn't the assignment. It's that nobody slowed down to ask what they actually think. So that's where I start. We figure out what the argument really is before we worry about how to write it. Once that's clear, the writing gets a lot easier.
I also work with students on college application essays. I just finished the process myself, so I know what admissions officers are reading for right now.
If you want to set up a first lesson, send me a message and we can figure out if it's a good fit.
