"Hello! I am a warm, friendly person who was born to teach! I work well with students of all ages and have been teaching/tutoring for over 12 years. I love language, and when you work with me, you'll see that I am passionate about sharing that excitement with you. One of the reasons I enjoy teaching privately is that I relish the chance to tailor our sessions to your needs. We are partners in your learning process, and as I get to know you better, I refine the sessions to target your unique difficulties, in your preferred learning style. We will work together to figure out which tools and methods work best in helping you achieve your goals. My specialties: I am a great writer and editor, which means I insist on quality work,and I know what teachers look for in writing assignments. I'm a strong reader, and I can help you improve your reading skills, no matter how old you are!

As a native speaker of English who learned fluent Spanish without living abroad, I am in a unique position to assist English speakers who need to improve their Spanish skills. My strength in Spanish grammar comes directly from my strength in English grammar. All of those Spanish vocabulary words also allow me to explain English SAT vocabulary in terms of its Latin and Greek roots, which comes in handy for memorizing.

I look forward to working with you!" less...
