"Hello! My name is Olivia. This fall I am excited to begin my MA in English Literature at NYU as a Dean’s Master’s Scholar. In May 2023 I graduated Summa Cum Laude with Honors from George Washington University with a BA in English and Criminal Justice. In the fall of 2023, I moved to Madrid, Spain to work as an English Language Assistant. I have a deep passion for reading, art, and media of all kinds including movies and music, which I love to share with my students. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, community service, and long-distance running!

I have training and experience in high impact, student-centered tutoring practices in middle school math, all levels of English language, and all levels of English as a Second Language. As an undergraduate, I completed an Honors Thesis and have extensive experience editing student writing and published works.

Most recently, as an English Language Assistant in Spain, I led classes of approximately 25 students ages 11 to 18 in lessons focused on language learning and cultural exchange. In these classes and my private tutoring sessions, I love to mix serious study with games and other engaging activities to keep learning interesting.

To me, the most rewarding part of teaching is seeing my students grow and improve overtime; their success is mine! I believe my students always have something to teach me and love learning from them. I look forward to meeting you and building a pathway to success!" less...
