"Hello,
I have taught Language Arts, (9-11th grades), AP and IB English, and First Year College Composition) for more than a dozen years in Florida and in New England at elite colleges and universities in the Northeast Brown, MIT, UMass). have worked with students to increase their scores on the ACT and SAT by teaching them tips and techniques to master both tests. Furthermore, on Wyzant I have been working with students on their essays for their English classes and helping IB students with their extended essays, oral presentations, and homework assignments. I am trained as an AP Language and Composition and an IB teacher. My undergraduate degree is in Language Arts, my Master's degree is in American Studies and my Ph.D. is in Folklore and the Teaching of Writing.
I'm a published author and experienced technical writer and my editorial skills help students with writing, including college application essays. I work mindfully with each student, discovering their strengths and challenges, and helping them succeed.
I usually work online which works out well, especially with students' schedules. Plus, I get to meet students from all over the United States.
Yes, I am a grammarian but I won't shame you if you have lots of grammar errors!
I really do ENJOY helping students. I can work with you and have lots of patience and humor and help you master skills, and increase your confidence. Let's work together to meet your goals.
