Tutoring Expertise and Passion 

My name is Jalen Fox. My pronouns are he/him/his. I am in my fourth year at Marquette, studying Marketing and Commercial Real Estate. My favorite genres to read are self-help and personal growth pieces. My favorite projects to work on are any types of graduate level writing, specifically helping grad-level writers generate ideas, and display those ideas in written form. I also really enjoy argumentative writing, or any type of writing that involves thorough contextual analysis. I welcome and appreciate all writing topics and styles!

Statement of Philosophy

I have done a lot of literary criticism work prior to and during my college career, so that is something that I am most comfortable with. However, I am more than open to work with whatever project I am given. I like to drive writers to push beyond the literal and provide their own analysis to help discover new and interesting ideas about the subjects that they are working in.

Goals

  • Provide visitors with a great experience such that they have the desire to return to the Ott

  • Become more knowledgeable in subjects beyond my specific field of study 

  • Grow as a writer and professional through working with other writers
