About Nick


Bio

I'm an experienced high-school English teacher (4+ years). I've taught in pretty diverse settings such as the private school (college prep) setting and SFUSD. I specialize in teaching essay writing, but also am able to support students with their reading comprehension skills – as well as more broader strategies regarding academic success.
