"Hello! My name is Benjamin F., and I’m a certified high school English teacher in Virginia with several years of classroom experience. I hold a bachelor’s degree in English and have completed a master’s program in education, where I specialized in secondary English instruction. I currently teach 9th-grade English in a public school setting, where I work with students ranging from struggling readers to advanced writers.

My teaching focuses on building strong reading comprehension, essay organization, grammar, and literary analysis skills. In addition to full-class instruction, I regularly provide one-on-one and small-group support, helping students break down complex texts, develop thesis statements, and improve clarity in their writing. My approach blends structure with encouragement — I aim to help students gain both the skills and the confidence they need to succeed.

I look forward to helping you reach your academic goals through personalized, practical English tutoring sessions." less...
