John L.

Private tutor in Springfield, IL

Education

Senior History Major at the University of Illinois at Springfield. Studied at Saitama University in Japan as an exchange student. 3.5 GPA.

Experience

I am a secondary education minor, so getting real-world teaching experience is very important to me. But, more than that, I want to help high school students maximize their abilities, and I think I can do that through tutoring them in language, history, and so on. I have taken many, many history classes which require incredible amounts of reading and writing, and as my GPA suggests, I tend to do very well. I believe that I can teach students effective ways to write research papers, use grammar correctly, and use the social studies to better understand the world around them. I was the captain of my cross country team in high school, which has helped me develop leadership abilities. I have also worked in groups throughout my college career, usually leading them, so I believe I have a measure of experience when it comes to leadership. These are skills that I think I can pass down to the students I tutor.
