Kelsey B.
Private tutor in St. Louis, MO
Education
In 2013, I graduated from the University of Rochester with a bachelors degree in Honors English and two minors in Spanish and Theatre. I graduated summa cum laude. Currently, I'm earning my MFA at Washington University in St. Louis in fiction writing. I'm honored to be an Olin Fellow. My expected graduation date is May 2016.
Experience
At the University of Rochester, I was a Writing Fellow and peer tutor that worked one-on-one to help students with their writing, whether research papers, lab reports, or applications. I received a 30 on my ACT and a 163 on my GRE Verbal and a 5 on my analytical writing, in the 92 and 93 percentile respectively. I love working with people and particularly love teaching one-on-one; it's much more personalized and therefore more beneficial for the student. I'm very passionate about reading and writing, so it's a joy for me to talk about it and equip others to become better readers and writers. Between my undergraduate and graduate education, I worked for a year as a reading and writing coach at a Rochester City School District elementary school. For two summers prior, I was a staff reporter for a daily newspaper, The Chautauquan Daily. I also have experience in publishing, having spent a summer as an intern for Open Letter Books.
