Chenyu YiAbu Dhabi - United Arab EmiratesNYUAD student, Essay/Research Paper Tutor, ACT 35
As a college senior, I have extensive first-hand writing experience in interdisciplinary subjects. I have taken courses in psychology, sociology, linguistics, and education and my writing received numerous positive comments from my professors. Here are a few examples:
"An excellent paper at all levels. Your reading of the book was deep and you successfully connected it with multiple notions discussed in the course. The only thing that could have been more expressive, is the title. But the paper itself and your analysis are outstanding. "
"This is a very good paper. The introduction is excellent and you present a clear argument from the beginning. The context provided in the second paragraph helps readers situate themselves, as well as the explanation related to societal structure and dialectal tension. I like that you explain how dialectal variety help people bond, not only feel discriminated."
"Chenyu, nice job! You start off strong - by posing a thesis and argument that uses the readings, but goes beyond the scope of our class discussions. You use the evidence well to reinforce your claims. Overall, great job!"
I also have experience tutoring high school English since June 2020. I worked with my tutees to brainstorm the topic, form the main argument, write an outline, refine the argument, find supporting evidence, scaffold the actual writing process, and finally proofread the paper. My tutees have all successfully entered the university of their choice.
As a college student, I understand writing a research paper can be frustrating, so it is important to me that my sessions are designed to address the needs of my tutees and my advice is practical and useful. I am great for anyone who finds academic writing challenging and doesn't know where to start. In addition, I speak Mandarin, so I am an even better fit if you are a second-language learner, because I can empathize with your struggles.
