Hi!
My name is Z, and I am currently pursuing my M.A. in Religious Studies at the University of Denver, specializing in Sacred Texts, where I have maintained a 3.95 GPA. I earned my B.A. in Religious Studies and Women & Gender Studies from the University of Mary Washington in 2021. My academic background includes Christianity, biblical studies, world religions, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, gender and religion, and religious texts. I also completed substantial undergraduate coursework in psychology, including developmental, abnormal, personality, biological, and child psychology.
In addition to my academic background, I have several years of experience working in public education as both a substitute teacher and instructional assistant. I have worked with middle and high school students in classroom and individualized settings, including students with a variety of learning needs. These experiences taught me the importance of adapting explanations and teaching methods to the individual student rather than expecting every student to learn in the same way.
I am particularly interested in helping students with religious studies, psychology, reading, and writing. In reading and writing, I can support students with reading comprehension, textual analysis, research papers, thesis development, and writing mechanics, including outlining, organization, revision, academic voice, and argumentation. Whether you need help understanding a difficult reading, organizing your ideas for a paper, or strengthening a draft, my goal is to help make the material feel more manageable.
My approach to tutoring is collaborative and individualized. I like to break complex material into smaller, approachable pieces and work through it at a pace that makes sense for you. Rather than simply giving you an answer, I want to help you understand how to approach the material and develop strategies you can use independently in the future. I am excited to meet you and help you build confidence in your work and reach your academic goals!
