If you've stumbled upon this page that means one of two things: 1) you are my arch nemesis and you are doing background research on how to take me down (good luck) or 2) you are affiliated with the UCWbL in some capacity (in which case, Hi! It's me, from work). Regardless of the aforementioned, this digication ePortfolio details my employment at DePaul University's Center for Writing-based Learning. Herein you will find a veritable potpourri of academic musings and reflections that recount my tutoring experiences that culminate in my ever-morphing tutoring philosophy. 

Now you may be asking yourself why Julie Andrews spinning betwixt several mountain peaks is the banner image for this portfolio- in short, I do not honestly know. I will, however, direct you to my Wordplay post which may better explain Ms. Andrews' relevance here. 

I hope that you enjoy sifting through these web pages and better understand where I am as tutor and also hope that you don't use my scatter-brained words as evidence to commit me to a mental institution. I am unsure of your familiarity with the television program Pretty Little Liars, which is shown on ABC Family, but there is a mental institution called Radley Sanitarium and I do not think I would hold up well there.

Best,

Matt Krasno
