Certified Tutor

As an enthusiastic educator with a Bachelor's in English from Dickinson College, I have over two years of experience tutoring students across various levels, specializing in English, Literature, and Writing. My teaching philosophy emphasizes creating a supportive environment that empowers students to articulate their thoughts and refine their writing abilities. I find immense joy in witnessing their progress, as I believe every student has the potential to become a confident writer. My approach is tailored to meet individual needs, particularly for multilingual and ESL learners. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, learning new languages, experimenting with recipes, and hiking, all of which enrich my perspective as an educator.
