Laura
Certified Tutor
I am a graduate of the University of Florida, where I majored in English and minored in Linguistics. I truly love writing and have a passion for spelling and grammar. I am confident that I can help any student become a better writer.
Throughout high school, I worked with a boy through his third and fourth grade years to improve his writing skills for the FCAT, the state standardized exam in Florida, which he successfully passed at the conclusion of my tutelage.
Standardized testing has always come naturally to me and I scored very well on my SAT test. I would be happy to pass along any tips and tricks I can to help students score higher. My specialty is in process of elimination and strategic guessing.
Additionally, I have always been good with Mathematics and Spanish. I tutored my peers in Math throughout all of middle and high school. I love Spanish and studied it for seven years (up until mid-college). One high school sophomore I helped in Spanish raised her D+ to an A!
While a majority of my tutoring experience is from high school, I have had plenty of leadership experience since that has kept me aware of successful teaching methods. I was a camp counselor for elementary-aged children for four consecutive summers (2008-2012), and I was a leader and choreographer for my college dance team from 2008 to 2011.
I have top-notch communication skills and a fun personality. I would be thrilled to help students achieve their education goals.
