I have worked as a TA for the Long Fellows Young Writers Workshop for two consecutive summers. I am currently a graduate assistant teaching 101 composition at SIU and I worked in a high school as an Education Technician, providing academic assistance, particularly for English.
I'm a senior in high school and have always excelled at reading and math. I'm available to help any age level with anything they're struggling with. I have 3 sisters in elementary school and two brothers. One in high school and one in middle school. I've helped them all with their homework and help them understand it when I do.
