I am a sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin, majoring in Sociology with a minor in Law, Justice, and Society and I am on the pre-law track! I am qualified to tutor English, reading, writing, and although I do not have experience in tutoring history, I am absolutely open to tutoring AP United States history (or even United States history at a middle school level). In high school when I took the ACT, I received a 35 on both the English and Reading sections, as well as 5s on the AP English Literature, AP U.S. History, and AP World History exams (I took a total of 16 APs in high school and received mostly 5s and otherwise passing on all my exams, though I specialize in the humanities). I have always been an avid reader, as my reading level was notably advanced since early as kindergarten which prompted me to take on reading as a passion and not just something I did for school. In terms of writing, my teachers and professors have always commended my skill and growth as a writer, and my college coursework has further accelerated my argumentative, analytical, and research-based writing. I have also consistently excelled in history because I find that it is essential to approach history with curiosity and analytically framing the connectivity and continuity of events, and how those ideas can be translated into strong written arguments.
I absolutely love tutoring, especially focusing on standardized testing--English and reading sections--and English literature analysis! I have tutoring experience with students of different ages and in several settings, including two summers in high school where I volunteered as a tutor for first-grade students, helping them develop foundational reading and literacy skills. Through my work at Talking Animals Books and volunteer experience at the Euless Public Library, I have also worked with lots of kids in cultivating their literacy skills! In high school, I helped classmates prepare for the SAT and ACT, particularly in English and Reading, and I tutored them frequently!
