Emma Dunn
Brea, CA

News Director, Professional Writing Mentor

I have years of professional experience in teaching writing. I also have experience tutoring in journalism, resume writing, and English. In college, I was a tutor at our Learning Resource Center on campus. I focused on helping my peers in essay wring, grammar, and technical writing. I tutored college level students for two years while I attended Flagler College. It was also there that I earned my degree in Journalism and Media Production with a concentration in Journalism. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with the Distinguished Journalism Student award, presented to the top journalism student. I was also awarded the Faculty Department Award from Flagler College which is presented to graduating seniors who "have distinguished themselves through scholarly activity and academic achievement in their selected disciplines of study." Since graduating, I have volunteered tutoring grades k-12 for three years and have continued to help my college level peers in reviewing their work. I have helped recent graduates secure jobs by helping them compose resumes and proofreading their work. On top of tutoring, I have served as a News Director for two years, working as an editor-in-chief. I proofread articles daily and am constantly immersed in new content and trends. I am passionate about writing and I enjoy teaching because I have found that most students already have the answers, they just need help getting their thoughts organized on paper. I can provide the tools to help you reach your fullest potential. In our sessions, I will work with you and cater to your learning habits to give our time a meaningful and lasting learning experience.

Haley Sarokin
Pomona, CA

CSU Political Science Student, Reading Tutor

As soon as I learned how to read it's something I've always been passionate about. It was my favorite subject starting from elementary all the way through high school. I love reading books, poems, novels, and also writing my own literature. In high school, I participated extensively in book clubs as well as receiving A's in all my English/Reading classes. In my book clubs, we would each read a paragraph out loud throughout the entirety of the book, which helped all of us with effortlessly pronouncing and declaring our words clearly. Having a sibling who grappled to understand reading for most of their life , I understand first-hand the struggle of trying to learn how to read. I believe this makes me a proficient tutor for those who are looking to advance their skills in reading because I can understand the difficulty. I have an extensive background in tutoring and coaching students in order to advance their reading skills. l worked with an after school special needs program where I helped several students with their speech class where they had to publicly read passages and long speeches in front of the entire class. Some of the students I helped moved up two reading levels and others were able to move to a more advanced class. I currently tutor my fellow peers at college in reading. I specifically focus on helping freshman with words that are harder to recognize and with reading long passages fluently and accurately; which is something I've seen most people struggle with.
