Lexi's Writing And Foreign Language Help

I'd like to set up a phone call to discuss specific needs and areas for improvement. From there we can assess the length and frequency of our sessions, set up a schedule and start working toward the student's goals.

I have bachelor's degrees in journalism and Spanish, as well as a minor in Arabic. I've worked as an extended school program teacher, where I gave introductory level Spanish classes. I've also volunteered as a writing coach in entry level journalism classes and served as the sole Arabic tutor for MTSU for the 2019-2020 academic year.

I lived in Malaga, Spain while taking junior and senior level undergraduate courses, taught exclusively in Spanish and Arabic. I am an alumna of the extremely competitive Critical Lanugage Scholarship program, during which I completed eight weeks rigorous Modern Standard Arabic study in Meknes, Morocco. 

For lessons that do not require me to prepare exercises ahead of time, my rate is $25 per hour within Murfreesboro city limits. For lessons given outside Murfreesboro, we can negotiate appropriate compensation based on mileage.

I began Spanish tutoring in high school as part of the Spanish club. In college I volunteered to come back to my foundational writing professor's class and help his students. By my senior year, my Arabic professor noticed my understanding of the material and ease working with fellow students, and asked me to be the Arabic tutor. 

As a trained journalist, a huge part of my job is distilling big, complex issues into easy-to-understand pieces. Tutoring employs a similar skill set to benefit my students.
