Experience
I have tutored for the last 7 years while here in England. Subjects have included Maths, English and history. I currently teach at a British Independent secondary school. I teach English for students 11-13 years old and history for students 14-18 years old. I have worked as an adjunct instructor for SUNY Oswego and Onondaga Community College before moving to England. I got between 3 and 5 on AP Maths, French, English and US History exams. The relevant classes I have taken for my PhD, MA and BA are too many to list. I have also worked as a Freshman Writing Seminar Instructor for Cornell University while as a graduate student there.

Hobbies
I love track and field and working out at the gym during my spare time. I also love helping my students do better on their classes and exams. I love reading, especially Lord of the Rings-type books and writing as well and exploring London's cultural offerings. My favourite tv shows to watch include the X-files and Once Upon a Time. I also enjoy travelling to other places in Europe when I have the opportunity and have been to Belgium, Sweden, Austria, Italy, Turkey and Greece.
