Hi There! I'm Sarah, a recent high school graduate who also earned her Associates Degree through dual credit. I am currently working towards a Bachelor's Degree in Economics and studying for the LSAT. While I don't have much experience in tutoring, I have a passion for knowledge that I would love to share. I have taken many courses at the college level in English, Composition, Communication, and Public Speaking, in addition to math courses up to Calculus 1.

In my last year of high school, my adventures in dual enrollment were well known, and I started to become the person my friends came to needing help preparing for our final presentation that was a key part of our graduation requirement. I learned quickly that as much as I loved being a resource for others, it turned from short conversations about how to lay out a presentation slide to hours long calls about essay structuring and I was burnt out. Through Wyzant, I will be able to better manage my time so that not only will students feel prioritized and heard, but I will be in the best mindset to help them learn.

My teaching style is fairly relaxed, and my goal is generally to let students come to their own conclusions about the material that I've previously taught/clarified. It's important to me that the student is able to think critically about what they've learned after our session so that they can retain and apply the knowledge outside of the time we spend together.

I am very excited for this opportunity to help students grow in their wealth of knowledge as I continue my own journey in education. It's crucial to me that students feel welcome and valued in our sessions together, and so any suggestions on how to better do this are welcome. Feel free to reach out with questions or to schedule a session with me!

Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I have taken multiple classes at the college level diving into the finer details of essay composition. This included studying rhetoric and essay structure in addition to learning about and writing multiple kinds of essays, including Personal, Research, and Persuasive. We also covered proper citation of everything and anything someone could possibly want to cite and how to properly search through academic databases for sources.
Film

Film

I have taken multiple classes at the college level on Film. We studied films of multiple different genres and studied the production elements like set design and score building as well as viewer elements like mise-en-scène and shot choices. I wrote multiple essays analyzing elements from color choice to director themes.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I have taken multiple classes in Public Speaking at the college level. We studied rhetoric as the basis of all our speeches, and used those tools to write our speech outlines and presentation slides. I learned how to properly present multiple speeches, including Informative, Storytelling, and Persuasive, while avoiding the common presenting mistakes. This knowledge was very useful in helping my high school peers in preparing for our big graduation presentations, so I do have some experience coaching others in this subject.
Soccer

Soccer

I was co-captain at the varsity level for 4 years and club for 3 as a goalkeeper on both teams. I learned the balance of supporting teammates and pushing them to be their greatest for each other. I have been an assistant coach for a girls middle school team and am currently volunteer coaching a high school age girls club team.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I am a 3rd year college student who is always learning new ways to study! I have quite a bit of experience annotating different kinds of documents and using different memorization strategies to help me pass tests. I am also skilled at creating study schedules to make sure my time is managed appropriately.
Theater

Theater

I have taken multiple classes on Theatre and Stage Technology at both the high school and college level. We studied set design, lighting schemes, and sound technology. I have help construct/strike sets for many of my high school shows as well as being an actor and stage manager.
