"I have 15 years of experience as a high school English teacher. I have spent the past six years teaching honors-level courses that prepare students for Advanced Placement and Dual Credit English courses.

I currently teach AP Seminar and AP Research which I can provide some support for. I have served as an AP reader for College Board over the past four years, scoring student responses in AP Seminar and AP Research. Through that experience, I know what student papers need to do to score well on the rubric and can point students to several resources and sample papers they can use to strengthen their papers.

***I cannot provide direct, individualized feedback or assistance for anything that is submitted to College Board, but I can point to areas of the rubric where they can improve and provide examples to guide them.***

Additionally, I have experience in helping students prepare for the written portions of several AP exams including Lang, US History, and World History. Along with valuing the importance of developing students' writing skills, I also understand how difficult this can be for many students. I do my best to break writing assignments down to their most essential skills to help students understand the common elements of quality writing. I enjoy working with students one on one to improve their understanding, and I am willing to dedicate as much time as is necessary to ensure that students I work with find success.

I have a wide variety of experience with the most traditional forms of essays in high school English courses. I also have several years of experience in proofreading and guiding students through revision in dual credit & AP English essays, college admission essays, and scholarship essays.

I look forward to working with you to meet your writing, proofreading, and/or literature needs so you can find success in your English class!" less...
