About Vanessa
My name is Vanessa, and I hold a PhD in English Literature. I currently teach writing and literature courses a university in New Jersey.
For over a decade, I have taught college-level writing, helping students develop stronger arguments, clearer analytical skills, and greater confidence in their academic work. I also teach English Literature, especially Shakespeare and early 20th century literature, as well as Philosophy.
In addition to university teaching, I have spent several years working with students online through Zoom and SuperProf. I work with a wide range of students, from high school learners preparing for AP exams to graduate students navigating the dissertation process.
I have a strategy to help you write a COMMON APP Essay that admissions officers will want to read! It's a good idea to have this essay finished by August 1, so that you can work on supplementals as soon as the applications open!
I am a Reader for the AP Language and Composition Exam.
*Dissertation consultation, editing, proofreading, and academic writing support available.

Many of my high school and undergraduate students come to me for:
• AP Language & Composition Exam preparation
• AP Literature & Composition Exam preparation
• Essay writing support
• Reading comprehension and literary analysis
• General ELA coursework assistance
I specialize in helping students strengthen their writing in a way that is clear, structured, and individualized.
I also work with graduate students on dissertations, theses, and other long-term research projects. Dissertation writing can feel overwhelming, and some graduate programs are better at preparing students for this phase than others. I help students at every stage of the process, including:
• brainstorming and topic development
• prospectus and proposal writing
• outlining and chapter organization
• argument development
• revision and committee feedback integration
• editing and proofreading
If you are confused about expectations, struggling to organize your ideas, or unsure how to strengthen your argument, I can help clarify the process and guide you step-by-step. Ask me the questions you feel uncomfortable asking your advisor!

Vanessa stepped up to the plate when circumstances left our class without a professor. This was a Shakespeare class -- vital to our coursework as undergraduate students of literature. Instantly adapting to the situation, Vanessa proceeded to lead us through what proved to be one of the most pivotal courses of my entire education. The investigations were thorough; the discussions were lively; and above all, Professor Vanessa made a signal effort to keep our meetings welcoming, open, and supported. Her approach instills an appreciation of how knowledge can be applied within the world -- that education will always be the most powerful tool for the betterment of ourselves, and that it can be accessible to anyone. I can't find the words to recommend Vanessa highly enough, as I believe she is committed to always striving for the best in academic excellence. It has been my pleasure to be her student, and I am honored to be able to pass this recommendation along to anyone fortunate enough to be able to work alongside this highly capable and caring professional.
