I am a dedicated social sciences student at Ball State University with academic concentrations in sociology, political science, philosophy, and criminal justice. My studies have strengthened my critical thinking, writing, and analytical skills, as well as my ability to explain complex ideas in ways that feel relatable and easy to understand. I approach education as both an intellectual and personal process—one that helps students build confidence, curiosity, and a sense of ownership over their learning.
I have worked with students in both peer and volunteer settings, offering academic support in writing, reading comprehension, and social science coursework. My tutoring style is empathetic, patient, and tailored to each learner’s strengths. I emphasize active discussion, real-world application, and reflection to help students make meaningful connections between what they learn and how they think about the world. Whether guiding a student through an essay, helping them unpack sociological theory, or strengthening study habits, my goal is always to make learning empowering and enjoyable.
Above all, I believe effective tutoring goes beyond memorization—it’s about developing critical thinking, confidence, and a genuine love of learning. I strive to create a supportive environment where every student feels seen, capable, and motivated to reach their full potential.

Approved Subjects

Bible Studies

Bible Studies

I have spent years studying and reflecting on Scripture, developing a deep appreciation for its wisdom, symbolism, and timeless truth. My approach to Bible studies blends critical thinking with spiritual understanding, helping students explore not just what the text says, but what it means for their lives today. I create a safe, open space for honest questions and thoughtful discussion, guiding others to see the connections between faith, history, and the human experience. Whether you’re new to the Bible or seeking deeper study, I aim to help you grow in both knowledge and spiritual insight.
Bodybuilding

Bodybuilding

I have several years of personal experience in strength training and bodybuilding, with a focus on holistic wellness, discipline, and long-term sustainability. My approach goes beyond physical training—I emphasize proper form, balanced nutrition, and a healthy mindset that supports consistent growth and confidence. I help clients build strong foundations, understand how the body adapts to training, and develop personalized routines that align with their goals. Whether you’re just beginning or looking to refine your technique, I’m passionate about helping others unlock their strength, both physically and mentally.
Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I am a developing writer and social sciences student with extensive experience in creative and expressive writing. My background in philosophy and sociology allows me to help students craft meaningful narratives that explore emotion, identity, and the human experience. I have guided peers and younger students in writing poetry, reflective essays, and lyrical pieces that highlight their unique voice and perspective. My approach emphasizes creativity, structure, and self-expression—helping writers not only refine their craft but also connect deeply with their ideas.
Sociology

Sociology

As a social sciences student at Ball State University, I have a strong academic foundation in sociology, political science, philosophy, and criminal justice. My coursework and research have equipped me to analyze complex social systems, cultural dynamics, and patterns of human behavior. I help students connect theory to real-world issues, making abstract concepts more relatable and easier to understand. Through patient, discussion-based tutoring, I aim to strengthen each student’s critical thinking, writing, and analytical skills while fostering curiosity about how society functions and evolves.
