Heather: Quebec City tutor

Certified Tutor

Most of my career, I have been a devoted teacher with 20+ years experience in the classroom--at the college level, at the secondary school level, in person and online, to both native and non-native speakers.

I am passionate about languages, literacy, and I am eager to share my enthusiasm for these subjects. But most of all, I believe in the power of education to empower individuals and transform lives. I am here to support you in your goals.

My degrees are interdisciplinary; I have a Bachelor of Arts in Comparative Literature and a Master of Arts in Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies. Comp Lit is in the Humanities, with an emphasis on critical theory and foreign languages. So (while I can't teach maths), I have multiple endorsements, and I am able to teach multiple levels in each subject.

Most of the subjects I have taught are listed below. Those with an asterisk are undergraduate-level courses:

English 10 (World Lit),
English 11 (American Lit),
English 12 (British Lit),
*Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition (poetry, fiction from 1600- ),
*Advanced Placement English Language and Composition (nonfiction, rhetoric from 500 BCE- ),
*ENG 101, ENG 102
English as a Foreign Language and English as a Second Language,
Adult Basic Education English Language Arts (GED)
German Language and Culture (German 1, 2, 3, 4 and *GER 101, *GER 102, *GER 201, *Grundstufe B)

So whether you need to master the basics, beef up your vocabulary, pass a test, get help with writing tasks, apply for college, or even learn German: I got you. Let me help!
