Jalencia W.
Private tutor in Loganville, GA
Education
I graduated from Archer High School in Lawrenceville, GA. I graduated in the top 5% of my class. I am currently a sophomore studying Sociology at Amherst College in Amherst, MA. I am a humanities student. I love all things related to the arts and humanities so I can definitely relate to students who detest quantitative classes! My advice to those students is to persevere through high school and enjoy the freedom of pursuing your passions in college. After College, I would like to attend law school.
