"I am a teacher with over 25 years of experience teaching English, ELL, creative writing, and journalism. I also spent five years directing a college counseling program. I've worked in a variety of school environments teaching grade levels from 6-12. I enjoy working with students with diverse passions and challenges. I've taught traditional college preparatory courses to high achieving students, ELL classes of all levels for non-native English speakers, and learner centered courses with scaffolding to support neurodivergent students.

I am a lifelong learner, and I care about my students. My goal is to help make learning fun, and for students to see the value in developing reading and writing skills they can use throughout their life. I love tutoring because it allows an opportunity to individualize instruction for the unique needs and interests of the student. I look forward to getting to know you and your child. I'm proficient in tutoring grades 6-12, specializing in writing, reading, ELL, and college essays." less...
