About Sharon

As a former journalist and English teacher, I enjoy helping students discover their voice through writing. A certified teacher with more than 15 years experience in the classroom. I taught middle and high school English and developed a writing curriculum for struggling writers. I also created and taught a high school English and Communications course for international school students in their first year at a highly competitive college prep school. I am fluent in Spanish and have more than 10 years experience teaching Spanish I and II. In addition to teaching, I have enjoyed mentoring high school seniors, guiding them through the college application process and coaching them in the writing of college application essays. My goal as your tutor is to help you develop the strategies and confidence you need to succeed in achieving your academic goals.
