Welcome!
Hello, and Welcome to my Digication ePortfolio! I'm Rachel Pomeroy: a creative writer, graduate student, and peer writing tutor. I'm a Grad Assistant, tutor and the Social Media Team Leader at DePaul's University Center for Writing-based Learning (UCWbL). My role as a peer writing tutor includes working with writers face-to-face, online in real time, and online asynchronously. As the Social Media Team Leader at the UCWbL, I manage the UCWbL's social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, and UCWbLing (our blog).
The purpose of this portfolio is to showcase my work and development as a tutor during my time at the UCWbL; to give the reader a glimpse into my experiences, beliefs, and values as a tutor; and to transparently report my goals for future development and experience. There are several pages in this ePortfolio, each with a specific goal geared to one of these three main purposes. Specifically, in this portfolio, you will find:
- My tutoring philosophy, which describes my current best practices, strategies, and preferences as a tutor
- My professional development activities and projects, which includes both formal and informal research topics and projects I have undertaken
- My professional development goals for this academic year
- And the most current version of my résumé
Thank you in advance for taking time to visit my ePortfolio, and please enjoy!
