Certified Tutor

After teaching for six years in New York City, I now work for a national college access and retention organization. I enjoy working with teenagers and young people to help them succeed at short term tasks as well as strengthen their skills and confidence over time. Given my experience, I know what students need to be prepared for college and how to get them to that level. Whether it's test prep, essay writing, history content or study skills, I can provide the extra push for students to realize their full potential.
