Certified Tutor

Thank you for visiting my profile. I'm a lifelong lover of learning, and I've spent many years sharing that passion with the students I've tutored. I am a warm, encouraging tutor who prides herself in listening and observing her students carefully so that we can find a path toward success that suits a student's unique needs and goals.

In terms of my own education, I have a bachelor's degree in American Studies from Harvard University. I attended a competitive preparatory school in the Boston area from grades 7 through 12.

The majority of my previous experience comes from working with Boston-area non-profits. For Project DEEP, I helped middle school students with improve their class work and essay writing schools so they could gain admission to one of Boston's competitive magnet high schools.

Outside of tutoring, I am a professional freelance writer and editor. My nonfiction writing has been published on the websites of prominent literary publications.

I look forward to speaking with you!
