"As a college English instructor, I have spent the past five years teaching composition, rhetoric, and literature in both online and in-person formats. I love challenges and customizing my teaching to each student's style and needs. Let me help your student find success through customized educational solutions and lessons that are built on a knowledge of your student, their individual strengths, and how they think. My education includes an undergraduate degree in philosophy and English, a Master of Education in Elementary Education, and graduate work in Special Education and an MFA in Writing. I have over 20 years of experience teaching students from elementary through college with diverse learning abilities. I also have experience in assistive technology like Bookshare and Kurzweil, and finding solutions with whatever technology you already have available to you.

I began tutoring geometry in high school, and since then have tutored students of various ages, including adults, in everything from reading comprehension and writing to technology use and study skills. I pride myself in being able to help students see and experience their strengths while helping them to develop strategies to tackle challenges, build their skills, and reach educational goals." less...
