Tutoring Experience

I have dedicated eight years of my career to the field of education, where I've had the privilege of offering my expertise in English Literature and Writing through tutoring and teaching roles. During this time, I have had the opportunity to contribute my knowledge and passion to prestigious educational institutions, including The Lawrenceville School in New Jersey and the Field School in Washington, DC. These experiences have allowed me to engage with a diverse range of students and foster their love for literature and writing.

My educational journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in education and literature. I hold a Master of Science in Education (MSEd) from the esteemed University of Pennsylvania, which has honed my pedagogical skills and deepened my understanding of educational methodologies. Additionally, I pursued further academic enrichment by obtaining a Master of Arts (MA) in English Literature from the renowned Bread Loaf School of English at Middlebury College. This extensive academic background has not only enhanced my expertise but also provided me with a profound appreciation for the intricacies of English literature.

I am committed to continually evolving as an educator and enriching the educational experiences of my students, drawing upon my years of experience and comprehensive educational background.

Tutoring Approach

My approach to tutoring is centered around the development of long-term skills. After a session with me, you should feel empowered to work more independently and effectively without the need for ongoing tutoring.

Learning how to learn is a fundamental key to achieving lasting success, and I am dedicated to assisting you in becoming a more proficient student and learner.

My specialties lie in personal writing, particularly for admissions essays where individuality and style hold significant importance. I also excel in the realms of in-depth text analysis and meticulous editing practices.

As a graduate-level student at elite universities, I hold both an MSED and an MA in English literature. This background has granted me insights into what the best colleges and universities seek in both students and applicants. I am adept at identifying your strengths and helping you leverage them to become the best version of yourself. My aim is to support your growth and enable you to meet your full potential.
