Learning is a vital part of life, and I have helped teach others throughout my life, from helping friends and family, to volunteering at educational community events, to actually working as a tutor.
My degree is in Art History, with a certificate in Historic Architecture Preservation and a minor in German. I also interned at the American Academy in Rome archive, and ran my school's bookbinding club. The most important skill when learning history is finding reliable sources and analyzing them, which I practiced thoroughly during my education and would be able to guide others in the understanding of difficult texts and the writing of related essays.
While in college, I worked as a Language Tutor/Conversation Partner at the Student Success Center, a place that provides peer tutoring. Many of my students were international exchange students, who often came in to get more comfortable with colloquial language. Directed conversation practice increased ease with slang, word choice, and overall speech. Other students sought assistance with school work, such as reading help, essay editing, or presentation practice, and a few came in for IELTS practice.
I also worked as a German, Russian, and Ukrainian language tutor. Such students usually sought explanation and practice with class topics, bringing in textbooks or homework that I used to guide lessons. Other students came in to study a language on their own time, working with me to understand a reading, look for additional language learning resources, or simply converse for practice. During my time tutoring, I saw many students, including some who met with me consistently for months or even years.
I would love to meet more students. Please feel free to reach out, and we can work together to find the best way for you to learn.

Approved Subjects

Art History

Art History

I hold a degree in Art history with a certificate in Architectural Historic Preservation, and have interned at the archive and library of the American Academy in Rome. I focused my studied on the European Renaissance and modern Ukrainian art, with additional study of Impressionism and German modernism, with particular interest to how art fits in its historic context. However, the real skill learned in a humanities degree is how to find and understand academic sources, and with art history the additional skill of treating art as a set of clues to the life of an artist and their context. I can provide guidance for art analysis, working with historical sources, art history writing and research, and whatever else you may need.
English

English

I'm a lifelong reader and writer, and when I was in school I excelled at English courses, including high school AP classes and honors college classes. I also have several years of experience as an ESL tutor, where I became well versed in the explanation of various nuances of the English language to different levels of learners and in different subjects. I can provide patient, productive lessons with new ways of looking at subjects and a thorough understanding of academic English.
ESL/ESOL

ESL/ESOL

I have previously taught as an English Language Tutor/Conversation Partner, primarily helping international exchange students increase their language fluency through conversation practice, reading assistance, homework help, and other methods, practicing both colloquial and academic language. I am also the child of Ukrainian immigrants and have been learning German for 10 years, so I have experience translating between Ukrainian, Russian, and German, which may be a benefit to native speakers of those languages. I am also willing to learn parts of other languages to help your learning. I will work with you to find a studying method that works for you and help you reach your fluency goals at your pace.
German

German

I have studied German on and off since 2016, including a minor in German involving high level humanities classes entirely in German, and taught German students as a language tutor for 3 years. I am most comfortable teaching A1-B1 level students, and can provide new ways of explaining subjects you're stuck on, new materials to study, and overall a patient and welcoming learning environment.
Grammar

Grammar

I have previously worked for three years as an English and foreign language tutor, meaning I have a strong grasp of grammatical concepts, how to use them, and how to explain them, and have taught them through reading, writing, and speaking. I also took honors and AP English classes in high school, honors humanities classes in college, and am a lifelong avid reader, thoroughly acquainting me with just about everything English reading and writing can entail. I would be happy to provide a patient and productive environment to help you better grasp grammar and its nuances. Feel free to reach out!
Music Theory

Music Theory

I have been writing music since I first learned to read sheet music as a child, spent many years in various music ensembles, and took 5 years of music theory classes between high school and college, including AP Music Theory and music composition classes. I am not qualified for ear training, but I am well versed in written theory, Gregorian chant composition, and reading sheet music.
Proofreading

Proofreading

I have previously worked as an English and foreign language tutor for three years, meaning I have a strong grasp of how to explain grammar and word choice, and common mistakes in both. I was also an AP and honors student in high school, and an Honors humanities student in college, giving me ample writing and editing experience, and an understanding of what is expected in academic contexts. I would be happy to provide you with a patient but productive environment to improve your writing, not only providing edits but also an understanding of how to improve your writing in the future.
Reading

Reading

I have been an active reader since i first learned to read, and scored high throughout school including on high school English AP classes and tests, and received a near-perfect reading score on my SATs. I took a range of reading-heavy honors courses in college, taught reading to English language learners and special education students as a tutor, and have continued to read as a hobby. I provide patient and insightful reading assistance for any level and subject. Reading is an important skill that opens up many new horizons, and I would be happy to help you grow.
Russian

Russian

I have grown up speaking Russian and Ukrainian, including some years of weekend grammar school and lifelong practice reading and writing. I have previously tutored students in Russian, both as companion to a language course and as an independent learner, successfully reaching better fluency and ease of language. Welcoming both beginner and advanced learners, I can provide reading and speaking help, additional study materials, and overall a patient and productive learning environment.
