Carrie B.
Private tutor in State College, PA
Education
I have a Bachelor of Science from Penn State University. I graduated with 3.47 GPA and was a legal studies/crime, law, and justice major. My first two years of college were spent studying Biology until I decided I wanted to go to law school and switched. I am now a 2nd year law student at Pennsylvania State University, Dickinson School of Law and am expecting my Juris Doctorate degree in May of 2014.
Experience
I have two younger sisters so helping out with school work is nothing new to me. I want to tutor because I understand that it can be difficult sometimes to learn in large class settings and I believe I am equipped and able to give students the one-on-one attention that will lead them to success in their academic careers. I have taken many science classes, especially Biology and mammalian anatomy. My major was however, in legal studies and as a law student I am most well-rounded in areas of the law, constitutional subjects (such as American history), political science etc. The law is also however, heavy on writing and analytical skills. As an undergrad I took business writing and editing, public speaking, creative writing, and all the required grammar courses. As a law student I have taken legal journalism, legal writing, and writing and editing. Law school classes are also almost entirely built upon essay finals and papers, which require analysis and the subsequent ability to get your thoughts across through writing, so I have plenty experience in that area. I also had to take the LSAT which is primarily a test on analytical and reading skills.
