Private tutor in Meridian, MS
Education
I am currently in my final semester of the Masters of Arts in English program at Mississippi State University with a concentration in British literature. I have experience teaching and tutoring at the college level within the MA program. I have studied all genres of literature, and specifically enjoy paper/essay writing and research.
Experience
-Tutor at MSU's Writing Center -Instructor of Record for Basic English at MSU -Teaching assistant for Composition I at MSU ACT English sub-score of 33 ACT Reading sub-score of 31 I want to be a tutor because I have spent six years studying this material at the college level and it is genuinely material that I enjoy engaging in. So many students struggle with reading, writing, and analyzing, and I would love to make someone's pursuit of education less stressful by offering them the help that they need.

Hobbies
I, of course, LOVE to read! My favorite author is Jane Austen, who you might recognize by her most famous work _Pride and Prejudice_. Outside of academia, I am an avid barrel racer and wannabe fitness guru. I have a super outgoing personality and can easily engage with people. I am one of the few who love to learn, so I find English/literature to be fun, and want to make it FUN for others! I have a passion for helping others reach their academic success, which is why I have gravitated towards teaching as a profession. I would love to help you or your child reach full potential!
