I am an independent, one-on-one English tutor who specializes in writing, grammar, language arts, and literary study. I have 12 years of experience working in elite private schools in Los Angeles, Chicago, and abroad. I have experience teaching middle and high school students in general English classes as well as AP, IB, and other advanced coursework. I hold both a B.A. and an M.A. in English from Middlebury College, and my own writing has been published.
For students struggling in English class, whether in their writing skills or interpretive abilities, individual work with an experienced teacher is the most effective way to make progress. Even in the best schools, teachers do not have the time to devote that attention to a single student. I can guarantee significant progress by working from the student's comfort zone outward.
I can be available for a short term "burst" of tutoring (this can be helpful for special projects, college essays, or other immediate concerns) or for ongoing weekly tutoring. I am available for tutoring in most areas of greater Los Angeles no more than an hour from central LA.
