WORK HISTORY
Tutor, Writer, Editor @Wyzant
CA
Freelance tutoring of middle school through professional school students and adults; editing, and writing. I apply my experience as a college educator to assess the needs of a student and address them in very short order. For example, in a single session, I recently assisted a student in analysis of assignment, research techniques, and development of a thesis and plan.
