Amanda Mix
Major: Management
Minor: Statistics
About me: I am currently a junior, and this is my first semester tutoring Economics. I grew up in Lakeville, MN but currently live in St. Croix Falls, WI. In my free time I enjoy spending time on the lake, getting coffee with friends, playing volleyball, and spending time with my nieces and nephews.
Study Tip: Before an exam, my favorite way to study is to “teach” my roommates or friends about the content, especially if they have no idea what I am talking about. Teaching it to someone else really helps you to learn the material not just memorize it.

Minor: Economics
About Me: I am a senior here at UWL and this is my first semester tutoring economics. I am from Kimberly, Wisconsin but my parents have since moved to our cottage in Shawano. I enjoy various activities in my free time such as listening to music, hanging out with friends, hiking, and anything else outside. However, I do enjoy staying in and watching football and basketball as well.
Study Tip: Distractions and procrastination are the two things that I wish I would have limited better. I could have saved a lot of time if instead of checking my phone or pushing work off, I simply would have done the work right away. Your future self will thank you for the extra time and less stress!
