Rachel Morgan therachelmorgan[at]gmail.com ----------------------------------------------- Jan 28 2009 I graduated from Brown University with a 4.0 g.p.a, magna cum laude, phi beta kappa. I received a B.A. in Honors English and a B.A. in Psychology. I have worked as an instructor for a professional tutoring company where I received training. I have also worked as a freelance tutor and editor. I now teach a wide range of subjects to students from elementary school through college (and beyond). My students have been very successful. As one example, I had a CCSF student initially receiving Fs and Ds end up with straight Bs by the end of the same semester. As a student, I developed a range of skills and strategies for succeeding, and I really enjoy helping other kids do the same, often starting at an early age. I've also helped students interested in successfully applying to top-tier colleges. I live in San Francisco but commute to the East Bay frequently.
