Julia

Certified Tutor

I have always been extremely appreciative of the immeasurable impact that my teachers and professors have made on my academic, professional, and personal life. As an educator, I hope to accomplish and achieve the same type of positive impact on my students. I believe that the knowledge I have acquired through my education in China, my time at SUNY Geneseo as an Accounting major, as well as my professional experience in the Finance industry allowed me to become a fluent Mandarin speaker and writer, and also to have formed a solid knowledge base in Financial Accounting, Economics, Math, and Professional Writing, all of which are subjects I wish to teach. Over the past few years, I have worked with both college students as well as a young child. I served as a mentor and tutor to Financial Accounting students while I was still in college myself, I prepared fellow students for exams, and assisted with completion of assignments and longer term projects. I've also enjoyed working with a young child in Mandarin Chinese. I aim to always create interesting and engaging curricula to encourage the student to develop and exercise speaking, listening, and simple reading skills, at the same time encourage and cultivate a passion and curiosity for the Chinese culture. Through my experiences, I have developed great tutoring approaches, to always allow students to express themselves and to always facilitate hard work and thorough understanding of subject matters. I not only want to help students get high scores, but also for them to be able to think critically, logically, and analytically. Outside of my academic and professional life, I enjoy film, poetry, books, art, and food.
