I earned my MA in Comparative Literature from Northwestern University, then my Illinois English teaching certificate, and spent a decade teaching at the college level including all forms of composition classes, argumentative writing, Women's Literature, Children's Literature, and many other writing and lit related topics. I also taught high school English, focusing on AP Junior Language and Composition, and preparation for the AP test. I'm AP Certified in Language and Composition by the College Board.

During the course of my teaching I frequently tutored students outside of class on writing structure, rhetorical analysis, synthesis and argumentative essays, literary analysis, proper citations, and more. I focus on outlining, thesis creation, integrating research into essays, building analysis, constructing argument, tightening language, and much more.

All of my tutoring lessons are constructed around the needs of each student. I meet them where they are, and help them to build from there. I look forward to working with you to improve your understanding, performance, and writing skills!

Essay Writing

I've taught all types of writing to high school and college students for many years, including personal narrative, exposition, rhetorical analysis, synthesis, argumentation, persuasion, and more. I focus on the assignment itself, building an appropriate structure and concise writing tailored to the assigned topic and writing style.
