I’m Greis Torres, a New York City based reporter who has also dabbed her feet a little in the PR and democratic education worlds.
I graduated Cum Laude in May 2019 with a B.A. in Journalism and a minor in Anthropology from CUNY York College, where I was heavily involved in the student newspaper.
My work experience ranges from interning at a democratic school, working in CUNY York College’s official student newspaper, Pandora’s Box, and radio station, YC Radio, doing investigative reporting in NYC and interning at a public relations and marketing agency where I worked closely with the hospitality account executive.
Throughout my college career, I published over 30 articles in the official newspaper of my school where I became an editor and later, the editor-in-chief. I have experience writing features, spot news and in-depth stories. Outside of Pandora’s Box, I have also published stories in City Limits, Campus News and WhoWhatWhy.
A prominent in-depth story I reported on when I was the EIC of Pandora’s Box about a deal between CUNY York College and Royal Waste, a waste and recycle hauling company, rendered me a finalist for the Professional Society of Journalists Mark of Excellence In-Depth reporting (small) region 1.
Besides telling stories I’m also passionate about culture, languages (I am fluent both in Spanish and English, a beginner in French and would love to learn Finnish), singing, cooking and photography. Read less

Before I start any tutoring session with a new student, I will try to get to know the student better to know which style fits the student's learning capabilities, objectives and hobbies so I can modify my lessons based on the student's answers.
I have a very democratic approach to teaching in which I will let the student be very active in their learning.
I don't want to provide a typical teaching setting where I teach and the student sits there trying to soak up all the information. Read less
