Broca’s area is a part of the brain that controls the ability to produce language. Located in the left frontal lobe on the cerebrum, Broca’s area is named after Paul Broca, a neurosurgeon and scientist who in the 1860s first discovered the correlation between speech production and the left frontal lobe. Because Broca’s area controls the motor aspects of language production (for example, the ability to move one’s lips and tongue to utter words), damage to Broca’s area can result in a limited ability to speak, even if a person’s language comprehension remains intact. This condition is known as Broca’s aphasia. The discovery of Broca’s area was among early demonstrations in psychology that some cognitive abilities depend on specific areas of the brain.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
While I am most definitely still a student, I’ve had a lot of experiences that I’d love to use to help anyone who needs it. In the past, I’ve best helped students with writing, editing, and brainstorming their essays, solving math problems, and studying for their various standardized tests. I’m patient, and eager to help, but I won’t hand you a result :). Rather, I’ll work with you, because I think the process of reaching an answer is super important, and it’ll help you know what to do in the future when the same problem arises.
EXTRACURRICULAR INTERESTS
I’m an enthusiastic creative student, who writes music and poetry as often as inspiration creeps by. I study hard, and recently, the library has become my second home. I’m majoring in Psychology with a minor in Behavioral Neuroscience. I’m about to start working as a laboratory assistant in one of the research labs on campus, finding conclusions to questions my professors choose to ask. I’m so excited to learn more every semester, and truly grasp what it means to have a profession where stranger’s disasters are put in your hands to “fix”. Thanks for stopping by :)- Michelle
