Tutoring & Teaching Experience
I’ve been tutoring writing and communication for 5+ years, working with students ranging from middle school to graduate students and working professionals. My specialties include:
- College admissions essays & personal statements
- Scholarship essays
- Academic writing & research papers
- Grant writing and nonprofit proposal development
I work one-on-one with students to bring out their authentic voice, offering detailed, actionable feedback to help them clarify, structure, and polish their ideas. My method combines Socratic questioning, real-time collaborative editing, and practical instruction in writing principles that students can apply independently in the future.
I’ve helped clients earn admission to Ivy League and top-tier universities, secure thousands of dollars in scholarships, and develop grant proposals that articulate their missions with clarity and impact.
In addition to private tutoring, I’ve volunteered with college access programs, mentoring first-generation high school students through every step of the admissions process, from brainstorming to final draft.
