Tutor Information

About

Hi everyone! My name is Alyssa, but all my friends call me Ally! I have two degrees from Queen's; my Undergrad as a Philosophy Major/ History Minor Graduate and my Masters. I am a current PhD student at the University of Calgary and have been tutoring for about three years! I want to help other students like me who went to University and did not know how to write philosophical and historical papers! I aim to help you strive for better essays and research in undergrad! I understand that first grades in university can be super discouraging. However, I am here to help you write better and amplify your writing style to a university level! I did not know what I was doing when I entered my first year. Now I know all the tips and tricks and want to share them with everyone! I am currently in Calgary Alberta , Canada (Time Zone: Mountain Standard Time), and if you think we would be a good fit, send me a quick message and set up a free consultation to get to know me better! Please give me at least 24 hour notice prior to meeting just so I can ensure I give you the best help! Courses Philosophy: Introduction to Philosophy, Fundamental Questions, Ethics, Metaphysics and Epistemology, Philosophical Logic, Philosophy of Feminism, Philosophy of the Mind, Phenomenology, Early Modern Philosophy and many more! Courses History: Introduction to History, Crusades, WWII, Myth and Religion (Greek and Roman), Issues in Canadian History, Byzantium, History of African Americans in the United States, Soviet Experiment and many more!

Great first impression, very kind, and great use of time. We managed to create a game plan and schedule another meeting within the allotted 15 minutes.
