Certified Tutor

As a passionate educator with over ten years of experience teaching English Literature, Creative Writing, and Poetry, I thrive on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment for my students. I hold a Master's in Creative Writing from Sarah Lawrence College and have also studied Cinema and English Literature, enriching my approach to literature and writing.

My teaching philosophy centers on encouraging students to explore their unique voices and perspectives, particularly through texts that delve into themes of gender expression. I find immense joy in guiding students through the complexities of literature, helping them develop critical thinking and writing skills that will serve them well beyond the classroom. Additionally, my background as a writer and associate editor has honed my ability to provide constructive feedback and inspire creativity in my students.
