Hannah
Writing/Social Work Tutor for College, Grad, & Non-Trad Students
As a tutor, I love talking with students about their writing process and equipping them with tools to help them enjoy writing and feel confident as they tackle their assignments! I primarily work with graduate students, many of whom who are pursuing degrees in social work or psychology, or non-traditional students pursing goals such as passing a literacy exam. Note: I do NOT help students prepare for the LCSW exam. I also tutor college students working on academic papers, personal statement... Read more

I strive to bring the same humor, compassion, and knowledge to each tutoring session. My tutoring methodology is to break down complex topics into their basic co... Read more
