"I'm Robin. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Ursuline College in 2002, with a B.A. in English Language and Literature. After graduating from college, I immediately decided I wanted to go into the teaching field.

I welcome any opportunities for growth as a tutor for myself, as well as suggestions from students and parents/guardians.

I would be an outstanding English tutor because I have a love of reading, and even more so, I am very passionate about writing. I feel as if writing is an art, one that can be perfected through expanding one's vocabulary, reading" less...
