I am a recent graduate with a B.A. in English and a minor in creative writing. I have several years of experience tutoring students from the ages of 6-20 in reading comprehension, spelling and grammar, AP English Language and Literature, ACT/SAT prep, essay writing, and creative writing.
I believe in the power of the written word to shape a person's understanding of the world around them. It is especially important for young people to have a strong grasp of the written word in order to be able to do well in every other subject. The subject of English in the classroom is meant to not only teach the grammar and rules of a language, but to also teach empathy, ignite the imagination, and prompt questions to encourage critical thinking - both inside the classroom and the world outside it.
My mission as a tutor in English is to guide the students towards their own understanding of the subject rather than telling them what or how to think.
