Anson P.
Private tutor in Chicago, IL
Education
Senior at University of Chicago, majoring in Philosophy and Literature
Experience
Experience: Worked with Columbia College Upward Bound program, tutoring and TA-ing English and Writing classes to various high school grades, as well as general tutoring in all (except Calculus- you don't want me to try to tutor Calculus) high school level subjects. Academic record; 33 on the ACT, Dean's List at NYU and UChicago, six months from graduation with honors. Strong interdisciplinary background throughout the humanities, and (thanks to our core)I haven't lost touch with all my science and math skills yet. Why do I want to tutor? Well, I started working with Upward Bound this past summer, and was surprised by how satisfying I found the work. Making a significant difference in a person's ability to read and write (my specialties, really) gives them the tools and abilities to expand in every subject, and to express and reflect on their own thoughts and metal processes. I'll be continuing my work with Upward Bound, but need some supplementary income as well; why not stay in a field I find rewarding? Misc: I have a car, which makes scheduling meetings much simpler, and don't mind working evenings/weekends.
