About

As a tutor, it is my duty to cater to my students' specific needs and expectations. Typically, at the beginning of a session, I set up goals with the student for what they want to focus on and accomplish during the session. Whether it's proofreading a final paper or working on English speaking skills, I work to make sure the student receives the help they need. I make sure to check-in with my student throughout the session to make sure they are following along and getting what they need. My strong passion for tutoring and my ability to cater to a diverse age of learners, from kindergarteners to university students, allows me to quickly hone in on the needs of the student and to recognize where the expectations are.

As a fourth-year undergraduate student at Loyola Marymount University double-majoring in Philosophy and Psychology, I have a vast amount of extensive writing in my academic career. The papers I write for my areas of specialty require great attention to detail and an accurate expression of ideas. This practice translates to my philosophy as a tutor. With my students, I attend carefully to each individual's needs and work closely with them on their papers and assignments. An experienced and passionate tutor, I enjoy working with students from a diverse age range with a variety of writing needs. Having worked as a Writing Tutor for Loyola Marymount University for the past year, I have thoroughly enjoyed watching my students grow through their writing. From literature reviews to resumes, I am here to provide you with the help you deserve.

I was working with Annika for almost one year. Within this year, not only my English writing ability improved a lot, but I also got emotional support from her. She takes her job seriously. Every time she was reviewing my writing, she always provided feedback to me and explained why she made these changes. In addition, she is really sweet and kind, and I feel excited to meet her every week. I would highly recommend Annika for the wonderful experience I had!

Frequently asked questions

When I first meet a student, I always make sure to ease them in by getting to know them as an individual. I believe that my students are individuals first; thus, I always strive to be personable with my students and allow them to warm up to me as their tutor. 

As a fourth-year undergraduate student at Loyola Marymount University double-majoring in Philosophy and Psychology, I have a vast amount of extensive writing in my academic career. The papers I write for my areas of specialty require great attention to detail and an accurate expression of ideas. This practice translates to my philosophy as a tutor. I've also served as a Writing Tutor at LMU's Academic Resource Center for the past year, so I have experience working with students across a variety of majors and discplines.

My lessons begin at $20/hour. If you would like to extend the lesson to an hour and a half, I will charge an extra $15. 

I began my teaching journey as a virtual tutor and after-school teacher at Little Apples Learning Center during the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time, I led a group of kindergarteners through their online classes and monitored their progress throughout the school year. I also updated curriculum and teaching materials that suited the students' interests and needs. It was through this job that I realized the passion I have for teaching and educating students. When I returned on-campus for my third year of college, I became a Writing Tutor. 

I have worked with kindergarteners, 1st graders, 3rd graders, high school students, and university students.
