About Me

As a lifelong learner and writer, I can attest to the importance of preparing learners of all ages for the rigors of our fast-paced, communication-based society. The internet has largely replaced libraries with lightning-speed delivery of information. I ride this speed wave with my passion for knowledge and self-mastery, a passion that I strive to instill in my students, whether they are taking a standardized test, writing an academic essay, trying to improve their grades, or simply attempting to increase their skill level in a particular subject. Improving one's mental skills is never a wasted endeavor; such skills continue to advance one's life long after tutoring has ceased by fostering new ideas and perspectives, improving interactions with others, stimulating conversations, and promoting on-the-job and daily life problem solving. I became a professional Tutor after several years as an Academic Writing Editor for undergraduate and graduate students. Since I began tutoring with Varsity in December of 2016, I have expanded my expertise to include all pre-school, elementary and junior-high level subjects. My focus remains on writing, reading and literary subjects when teaching high school, higher education, adult learners, and ESL students. The success I have gained as a high-demand, Private Tutor, is evidence of my quality teaching skills and versatility. There is no end to what a curious and dedicated mind can accomplish.

Q&A with Andrea

Be present and prepare beforehand. Learning is serious business, but it should also be fun. A curious mind never goes to waste. I should know, as I am always learning something new. I'd like to convey that curiosity to learn to students, regardless of the topic. A sharp mind is valuable both in and out of the classroom, but keeping the mind sharp requires learning. By highlighting a student's learning strengths, the student is likely to feel more motivated to succeed. This is also true with helping the student improve their weak points in a way that they can see the results.
