Experience
I have been helping people out with their essays on the topics of Political Science, Sociology, International Relations and the like for the past four years. My studies for the most part have been very theoretical. Although little research and a lot of writing and theorizing may sound dull, it gave me a chance to perfect my writing skills. Argument clarity, essay and paragraph structure, engagement with primary and secondary sources, concise expression of ideas are the skills that I have acquired over the years. To compensate for the overly-theoretical curriculum I've tried to engage in some projects on the side. I've been lucky enough to work as a research assistant on several research projects. It equipped me with the knowledge necessary to collect, analyze, and succinctly report on data. Something many students will find very useful. I also have experience in tutoring Russian - (it's my native language + I took classes in Russian literature and language). I have lesson materials for students of various levels of proficiency.
