My Private Tutoring Style
As a private tutor, my goal is to bring you, as a learner to your highest self! Together, we will formulate goals, think about what is most needed, and how to achieve those goals. From young kids to adult writers, I am an attentive, dynamic teacher who is able to go with your flow and figure out what you need to help you grasp the skills you are seeking.
What students will get from our work:
A higher understanding of core subjects
Comprehension skills
Applying creativity to STEAM projects
ACT and SAT prep (for middle school and up)
One on One attention
An opening and accepting space to explore writing as a craft
access to dozens of free readings
Workshop and Editorial skills
