Hi, my name is Maddie. It's nice to meet you. I

0:04

have an undergraduate degree in English from Arizona State

0:06

University with a minor in sociology.

0:09

While I was studying in Arizona State, I worked as

0:13

a writing Mentor. So I worked one-on-one with

0:15

students and undergraduate English classes primarily creative

0:20

writing in English 101.

0:21

Also, I was at Arizona State. I worked with the

0:24

Penn prison project. So I worked one on one with individuals

0:28

on writing skills.

0:30

I have had the opportunity to work at two different

0:33

literacy councils read Muskegon and Kalamazoo Literacy

0:37

Council both organizations. I

0:40

taught in the classroom setting as well as one-on-one tutoring

0:44

the subjects I focused in there

0:46

are were literacy English GED prep.

0:50

I also was able to teach job Readiness

0:53

classes and empowerment classes.

0:55

Um, I enjoy working one-on-one

0:60

with individuals I excel at

1:03

identifying goals and helping to break them down into more

1:06

manageable pieces. So everything doesn't feel so overwhelming and

1:09

impossible. I really

1:12

like to support and teach skills that

1:14

people can utilize independently, so they can

1:18

eventually start to master these things on their own and feel

1:21

confident to use the skills that we learn together independently.

1:25

So it was nice to meet

1:26

you sign up for my classes and I'll look forward to working with

1:29

you. Thanks so much.
