- “I worked with Ms. Morse during the summer of 2016. Our meetings focused on resume building. The results of those meetings spoke for themselves several months later when I was attending a resume workshop through Americorps and Teach for America. Every once in a while I’d turn my head to see my coworkers writing down formatting instructions for their resumes. I would have also been writing these suggestions had Ms. Morse not already pointed them out to me in our meetings. Once I completed the resume workshop, it was clear by the lack of changes to be made that Ms. Morse did a thorough, precise, and careful job helping construct my resume. I am grateful for the professional guidance of Ms. Morse and the support it has provided me in my work as a literacy tutor for Americorps.” Greg B., age 21
