My first semester as a writing tutor was a humbling and transparent experience overall.<\/span> During my undergrad, I fell in love with writing since history was my major. Discussing historical events while analyzing texts helped my writing become stronger. I wanted to become a writing tutor since I enjoy helping and teaching others who might need extra assistance. As soon as I had my first appointment, I knew I was in the appropriate job for myself. Seeing the utter joy from students faces when I helped them made me feel great knowing I was giving back in a positive way. <\/span> I got to tutor a class I took seven years ago during my undergrad. Re-building connections with professor <\/span>Cavalli<\/span> was one of the main highlights. He was very supportive and easily reachable whenever I had a concern<\/span> <\/span>or question. He would give me kind compliments to students that he was emailing back about their assignments. Knowing I was going above and<\/span> beyond for those students built<\/span> our correspondence as well. <\/span>Another aspect I enjoyed was getting some history students. I had an undergraduate want me to assist with a journal he wrote for a university. He was doubting himself but wanted his history to be seen in a comprehensive and professional light. <\/span>I had a few appointments with him an<\/span>d each time I kept being amazed<\/span> and encouraged him to pursue it further. This is the form of encouragement he needed and I could see his confidence grow. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

A student I had in <\/span>Cavalli\u2019s<\/span> class is yet another example of growth and determination. She was having troubles with a unit within English 103. <\/span>She sent a few revised drafts <\/span>to him but had extensive things to fix. I went through each correction with her and the last version she sent in was accepted by the prof. He said she made extensive improvement and was happy with how I assisted her. <\/span>She later told me she received an A because I helped her. This <\/span>really touched me since I assisted<\/span> someone develop their writing skills. I had numerous students within th<\/span>e class come back to me multiple<\/span> times during the semester. I really enjoyed how some would make appointments 2-3 times per week. This made me feel as if I was helping them succeed in the class. Through assisting with their writing, I also felt like a mentor since I had taken the class and <\/span>k<\/span>new of its challenges and difficulties. I would give students extra tips and overall advice on how to succeed in the course. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I feel this semester was very successful since I helped so many students succeed. It is also nice being a graduate student since I can give extra tips along the way. Having completed my undergrad at Trinity gave me an advantage as well. Knowing a good percentage of the professors, I knew what they would be expecting academically. With this, I could assist the students and give them the best advice possible. I cannot wait to continue as a tutor and hopefully one day a professor. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
