"I am Anna! I graduated with a BA in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia University where I received numerous awards for my writing and research in the humanities. I then went on to pursue a master's in Psychology at the New School where I spent several years working in a lab conducting research. I now work at an independent prep school in Manhattan as a high school teacher where I teach Modern Global History, AP Psychology, and Advanced Literary Studies. Whether a student is aiming to improve their grades in humanities-related subjects, dive deeper into specific topics, or enhance their skills in writing, reading, or research, I am here to support them every step of the way!
My tutoring approach is rooted in understanding each student's unique needs and goals. Are they struggling with time management and turning assignments in punctually? Do they need extra help grasping key concepts before a big test? As a teacher with extensive knowledge of high school curricula, I tailor my sessions to help students build both the skills and content knowledge necessary for academic success. My patient, holistic approach focuses on meeting students where they are and carefully scaffolding lessons to ensure their comfort and mastery of the material. Given my academic background and the subjects I currently teach, I am particularly suited to tutoring students in English, literature, history (particularly global history, 18th century to present), psychology, and statistics.
One-on-one tutoring can be transformative for students, offering them the opportunity to develop a deeper, more meaningful connection with subject material that might otherwise feel rushed or overwhelming in a classroom setting. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student grow to enjoy a class they once struggled with or achieve an A in a subject they thought was out of reach. My greatest joy as an educator is helping students unlock their potential and discover confidence in their abilities. Let's work together to make that happen" less...
