I teach English Composition, Critical Thinking, and Literature at two community colleges and also teach SAT and ACT prep (English/Writing only. My instruction is very student-centered; e.g., I understand all students learn differently, so I work with students' strengths and try to address their weaknesses in order for them to get the most out of their studying.
I have many years of experience as an educator and am committed to your success.
