I am a certified English teacher who has taught and tutored students in grades 7 - 12 for 23 years. I attained my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and Secondary Education certification in 2000 from Lycoming College. I then attained my Master of Arts in English Literature in 2011 from Mercy College. I enjoy teaching and tutoring because I love to witness the moments when my students are successful. My objective as an educator is to learn about my students in order to assist them in discovering their strengths. This is so that they can learn how to help themselves at reaching their own goals.
