English (K-8) and High School Level English tutor

About Danielle

So because 10 is over the top and 5 seems just one short of convincing, here are . . .
The TOP SIX reasons you should consider working with ME as your tutor:

6. I've attended and taught at just the type of schools to which many students aspire (Princeton, Wesleyan, Smith College, UNC Chapel-Hill). That means I can help you improve your work so you can get into college, thrive while you're IN college, and help you get out of college.
How?

5. I'm an amazing educator with several years of experience as a college professor.
I love helping learners strengthen their skills in WRITING, READING COMPREHENSION in any subject, ANALYSING LITERATURE, ESSAY EDITING, CRITICAL THINKING, AP LIT EXAM prep, and a variety of other skills for success in school at any level.

4. I love language, writing, reading, analysis, poetry and inspiring that love in students is a passion of mine.

3. I bring a unique entrepreneurial perspective and a rich tableau of real world life experience, and yet I'm a good listener who can empathize with what you're dealing with at any level of school because I've done them all!*

2. I understand that people learn in different ways and I love the challenge that presents. So it'll be about getting to know you and how best you learn.

1. I'm great with people and I've got a good sense of humor. When we work together, we'll have a nice balance of taking the work and your goals seriously but not taking ourselves too seriously.

*Want ONE MORE reason?
I've volunteered at after-school programs from kindergarten through 12th grade for 10 years.
Some examples:
- Creative arts extra-curricular instruction to first grade through middle school students (including fun with puppets).
- Individual and group tutoring and homework support for high school students
- Long-term academic mentor to two students taking them from struggling high
schoolers to successful college graduates and through to graduate school, 2003-2010.

I've got your back. Let's do this!
