Hollis B.
Private tutor in Tallahassee, FL
Education
I am a Florida State University Graduate, class of 2016. I majored in English (Creative Writing) with minors in Psychology and Business, and my overall GPA was 3.7. I was a member of two national academic honors societies as well as Florida State's Honors Program (reserved for the top 10% of students.) I also competed on Florida State's NCAA Division 1 Cross Country and Track teams all four years of college while maintaining a full course load. I am currently attending law school at the University of Notre Dame, and I will be graduating in 2019.
Experience
I tutored voluntarily when I was in high school. I scored a 2000 composite on my SAT (700 Reading, 640 Math, 660 Writing) and I graduated from the International Baccalaureate Program. I also scored a 5 on each of the AP English Exams (Language and Literature.) I love reading and writing at all levels, and I look forward to helping students reach their goals and find enjoyment in these areas.

Hobbies
As mentioned above, I competed in NCAA D1 Cross Country and Track during my time at Florida State (I was a long distance runner and specialized in the 5k and 10k.) I still run every day and work out often, and junk food and coffee are big parts of my life. I also love reading quality books, traveling spontaneously and spending time with my friends.
