Bio

I am currently an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University studying Human Rights, with academic experience across writing, social sciences, public policy, and the humanities. Much of my coursework requires close reading, research, argument development, and clear written communication. I also scored a 720 on the Reading and Writing section of the SAT, which reflects my strength in reading comprehension, grammar, analysis, and written communication.

I am currently an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University studying Human Rights, with academic experience across writing, social sciences, public policy, and the humanities. Much of my coursework requires close reading, research, argument development, and clear written communication. I also scored a 720 on the Reading and Writing section of the SAT, which reflects my strength in reading comprehension, grammar, analysis, and written communication.

My tutoring approach is patient, collaborative, and tailored to the individual student. I especially enjoy helping students with writing, reading comprehension, English, SAT Reading and Writing, history, government, and related social science subjects. When working on an essay, I would help a student understand the assignment, develop a strong thesis, organize their ideas, strengthen their evidence and reasoning, and revise their work while making sure the final product still reflects their own voice. For reading-based subjects and SAT preparation, I focus on breaking difficult material into manageable sections, identifying what a question is actually testing, and developing strategies students can apply independently.

While my experience has primarily come through academic collaboration, peer support, and working with other students rather than formal classroom teaching, those experiences have taught me the importance of meeting students where they are. I know that the same explanation does not work for everyone, so I am comfortable slowing down, approaching a concept differently, and asking questions to identify exactly where a student is getting stuck. My goal is not simply to help students get through an assignment or test question, but to help them become more confident and independent learners.

Approved Subjects

English

English

I am an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University with a strong academic background in reading, writing, and the humanities. I earned a 720 on the SAT Reading and Writing section and have extensive experience with analytical essays, research-based writing, close reading, grammar, and revision through my college coursework. I read an average of 15 textbooks on multiple interdisciplinary subjects per semester for my major, which is notoriously reading and writing heavy. I can help students strengthen reading comprehension, develop clear arguments, organize essays, improve grammar and sentence structure, and revise their work while maintaining their own voice. My approach is patient and collaborative, with an emphasis on helping students understand the skills behind an assignment so they can apply them independently in the future.
Geography

Geography

I am an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University with a minor in International Affairs and a strong academic interest in global issues, politics, culture, and geography. I first built my foundation in the subject through AP Human Geography during my freshman year of high school, where I studied population, migration, urbanization, political geography, development, culture, and human-environment interactions. Since then, my college coursework in international affairs and human rights has continued to strengthen my understanding of how geography shapes political, economic, and social systems around the world. I have also studied abroad and traveled internationally, which has given me additional firsthand exposure to different regions, cultures, and global perspectives that I can bring into geography tutoring.
Grammar

Grammar

I am an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University with a strong background in grammar, editing, and academic writing through SMU’s writing curriculum and my essay-intensive coursework. I am comfortable with punctuation, sentence structure, verb tense, subject-verb agreement, pronouns, modifiers, word choice, parallelism, and other common grammar concepts. I also earned a 720 on the SAT Reading and Writing section, which required a strong command of standard written English and rhetorical conventions. I focus on explaining the reasoning behind grammar rules so students can recognize patterns and apply them independently rather than simply memorizing corrections.
Handwriting

Handwriting

I can help students improve handwriting through instruction in letter formation, spacing, sizing, pencil grasp, paper placement, and proper writing posture. I am familiar with manuscript letter formation and with grouping letters by similar stroke patterns to make handwriting instruction easier and more consistent. I also understand the importance of adapting instruction to individual students, including differences in hand dominance and fine-motor development. My approach is patient and structured, with an emphasis on repeated practice, clear demonstrations, and helping students build comfortable, legible writing habits.
Reading

Reading

I am an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University with extensive experience reading and analyzing challenging academic texts across the humanities and social sciences. My coursework regularly requires close reading, identifying main arguments, interpreting evidence, comparing perspectives, and discussing complex ideas, and I also earned a 720 on the SAT Reading and Writing section. I can help students break down difficult passages, identify main ideas and supporting details, make inferences, understand tone and author purpose, and work through unfamiliar vocabulary using context. My approach is to teach students how to reason through a text step by step so they become more confident and independent readers.
SAT Reading

SAT Reading

I earned a 720 on the SAT Reading and Writing section and have continued developing those skills through reading- and writing-intensive coursework at Southern Methodist University. I am comfortable with passage analysis, main idea and inference questions, vocabulary in context, author purpose, tone, evidence-based questions, and grammar and rhetorical skills. I can help students learn how to eliminate tempting wrong answers, identify exactly what a question is asking, and find textual evidence efficiently rather than relying on instinct alone. My approach emphasizes repeatable strategies that make SAT reading questions feel more predictable and manageable.
SAT Writing

SAT Writing

I earned a 720 on the SAT Reading and Writing section and have a strong background in grammar, editing, and academic writing through my coursework at Southern Methodist University. I can help students with sentence structure, punctuation, subject-verb agreement, pronoun usage, transitions, concision, organization, and rhetorical effectiveness. I also focus on teaching students how to recognize recurring SAT question patterns and eliminate answers that are grammatically possible but wrong in context. My goal is to make SAT Writing rules feel clear and systematic so students can answer questions more quickly and confidently.
Writing

Writing

I am an undergraduate student at Southern Methodist University with extensive experience writing analytical, argumentative, and research-based essays across the humanities and social sciences. My coursework has strengthened my skills in developing clear thesis statements, organizing complex ideas, integrating evidence, conducting research, and revising for clarity and effectiveness. I can help students at any stage of the writing process, from understanding a prompt and brainstorming ideas to outlining, drafting, and editing a final paper. My goal is to help students improve both the individual assignment and the writing skills they can use independently in future classes.
