As a tutor, I take a personalized, student-centered approach rooted in inquiry, empathy, and high expectations. I believe that every student has a unique learning style, and I adapt my methods to meet their needs, pace, and goals. Whether working on analytical essays, creative writing, or exam prep, I focus on building confidence, voice, and clarity.
Teaching Method and Techniques
I use a blend of Socratic questioning, scaffolded writing instruction, and close reading strategies. I prioritize:
Critical thinking through discussion and textual analysis
Breaking down complex tasks into manageable steps
Providing real-time feedback to develop writing and argumentation skills
Using culturally relevant materials that reflect students’ identities and interests
A session typically includes:
A brief check-in and review of previous work or feedback
A targeted mini-lesson (e.g., thesis development, tone analysis, literary devices)
A hands-on application (writing, editing, annotating, or discussing a text)
A wrap-up with reflection, next steps, and practice suggestions
What Sets Me Apart
19 years teaching high school English (AP, IB, Creative Writing, Humanities)
Strong background in supporting multilingual learners, neurodivergent students, and those with writing anxiety
Deep commitment to equity, inclusion, and culturally responsive pedagogy
I make sessions empowering and fun—building both skill and self-trust
My tutoring is ideal for:
High school students (grades 9–12)
AP Literature, IB English, and advanced English students
Students preparing college essays or personal statements
Middle schoolers ready for enrichment or support
Writers of all levels who want to grow their voice and precision
Whether you're looking to raise your grade, improve your writing, or fall in love with literature, I’m here to help guide and support your journey.
