Hobbies
I have enjoyed (informal) tutoring since elementary school. Throughout my education, I would much rather spend time and energy attempting to teach material than allow a peer merely to arrive at an answer while lacking the proper understanding— my college essay actually focused on my high school experience as a proactive tutor and an opponent of "cheating" culture. In addition, I've voluntarily edited papers throughout high school and college. I work well with peers (students my own age) as well as with younger children— over the past year, I have volunteered in the academic center of a boys & girls club, assisting struggling and bilingual students (ages 8-10) with reading comprehension. I have the necessary patience, as well as a genuine will to observe the improvement and success of others, to serve as a tutor.
