"Hi, I'm Sarah! I am an English teacher with a passion for individualized learning practices that play on our strengths, rather than solely focusing on our weaknesses. As your tutor, I will ensure that you receive personalized guidance to maximize your linguistic potential. Whether it's strengthening grammar, honing writing skills, or enhancing reading comprehension, I provide comprehensive support!

I graduated magna cum laude from Brown University with a Bachelors in Education Studies and a Masters in Secondary English Education. I am passionate about education, and I believe that we all have a love for learning within us. My college and graduate education equipped me with the ability to identify student needs and goals and create targeted lesson plans that maximize students' strengths. Typical lessons with me include warm-up activities, student-driven activities, and opportunities for conferencing and feedback. I can adapt the provided coursework or create original materials.

I have experience teaching middle and high school students in both public and private schools. I. have a year of experience teaching 9th-grade ELA and Writing; I taught these classes using the Common Core Standards and boxed curriculums (ie StudySync). I have also tutored students learning English in a 1:1 virtual setting, using pre-made lessons to have productive conversations where grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation skills were practiced.

I am a flexible tutor who is always willing to adapt my practices based on your needs as a student. Please reach out to me if you have further questions or are interested in scheduling a lesson!" less...
