Tutoring

I offer a wide range of educational services, including individualized classes and tutoring, for students of all ages. 

My experience teaching sixth-grade ELA, providing academic support for students in grades 7-9, and coaching English language learners, fits well with my previous career as a mental health professional. I bring an elevated level of awareness and empathy to an online classroom.

Effective tutoring is a mix of providing students with the right balance of inspiration while supporting their current academic needs. I enjoy helping students and families determine a course that is best for them.

Here’s a general list of my areas of expertise:

READING 

  • Reading comprehension frameworks for fiction & nonfiction texts
  • Sketch vocabulary
  • Summary & reflection skills

WRITING

  • Essays
  • Poetry
  • Creative narratives
  • Presentations 
  • Process & practice – sentences, prewriting, revising, editing

  • Note-taking
  • Organizing materials
