Abstract

Tutoring and charcuterie boards. That seems like an unlikely pairing, doesn’t it? Ordinarily, I would agree, but throughout the semester, I have learned that tutoring can be reasonably compared to any number of things. Whether it be making a pumpkin pie, tie-dying a t-shirt, or making a charcuterie board, many aspects of tutoring are comparable to everyday tasks, tips, and tricks. I think tutoring can be related to a specific charcuterie board tip, especially regarding addressing analysis concerns, the directive versus non-directive battle, and Online Writery responses, or “TONY” responses.

Hi! My name is Maddie, and I am a junior studying political science and business. I am from Pleasant Plains, Illinois, but I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. I am currently a tour guide at Mizzou and will be starting as a tutor at the Writing Center when I return from my semester study abroad. I am currently studying international law and business in Rome, Italy. Outside of school, I love to read, play volleyball, hang out with friends, and spend too much time and money at Shortwave. After graduation, I plan to take a gap year before, hopefully, attending law school.
