Meet the Writing Tutors!
Spring 2013 Tutors
Amara
Major: Psychology
Random Facts:
I’m a fourth year Psychology student here at Channel Islands. I commute from the little hippy town of Ojai where I live with my parents and three dogs. I’ve loved writing all my life and for a long time considered studying literature to become an author. That is, until I found my greatest passion through studying psychology. I still love to write, which is why I became a tutor at the UWC. I also like karaoke and dancing (though I am far from a professional performer…). Right now, I’m especially enjoying learning to belly dance!
