A product of Georgetown and Columbia, this is my tenth year as a writing tutor. I have also worked as a full-time classroom teacher, in the humanities, for Johns Hopkins’ CTY and a gifted school in CT, and as an extremely successful college essay writing coach. My teaching certification is in grades 5-12 and as a college adjunct professor. Before becoming a teacher, I worked in writing intensive positions at Cambridge, a national non-profit, and William & Mary. As a result, I will most certainly help you to write better papers, whether they are short responses, literary analysis, DBQs, thematic essays, comparative pieces, persuasive editorials, analytical essays, creative narratives, personal statements, or formal research papers. I might even be able to help with poetry! As a teacher, I have helped students of all abilities to significantly improve their writing, critical / analytical thinking abilities, and grammar. Almost all of my tutoring students have become A-level students in all of their humanities courses and exams, including Regents, AP and college courses. I also specialize in middle school education. I am constantly updating and refreshing my skills and lessons, as well as customizing my instruction, to ensure the success of all my students! Numerous educators, who are familiar with my students, their struggles, and their subsequent accomplishments, have commented on the strengths of my customized sessions, which highlight students' strengths, target students' weaknesses, reflect student interests, and accommodate students' individual needs in order to maximize the positive results. My students tend to be extremely happy with my tutoring, and their grades and scores improve, often by a very large amount!
