About Me

I have been tutoring friends and peers in various subjects since high school, though the bulk of my ability and expertise lies in essay, paper, and speech writing/editing, non-calculus based statistical analysis, basic algebra, and in test prep skills. My ultimate desire is not only to help students understand subjects that they may be struggling with, but to help them cultivate a interest in and passion for the material itself. Understanding and ability in a subject is great, but a true desire for knowledge outside of the classwork itself creates a student driven by curiosity and interest instead of just wanting to pass the class. In my free time, I work at the Osteological Research and Processing Laboratory at the Forensic Anthropology Center at Texas State University.

Q&A with Shelly

Understanding of material is great, but even more crucial is a desire to learn and a passion for the knowledge itself, and those two things go hand in hand. How would you help a student stay motivated? Stimulating an interest in the material creates the drive to want to learn, so cultivating an appreciation for and interest in a subject helps keep students motivated. If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
