Hi! I’m Sarah. I'm a communication expert, experienced educator, and dedicated student coach who loves helping learners build confidence and achieve real results.

I hold a PhD in Communication and bring over 10 years of university teaching experience, where I’ve helped students strengthen writing, critical thinking, public speaking, and test-taking skills. I’ve worked with diverse learners, from middle school through adult professionals, and I specialize in breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps.

My tutoring style is supportive, structured, and encouraging. I teach students how to think, analyze, and problem-solve so they can succeed independently. Whether you're preparing for an exam, finalizing an essay, writing a speech, or simply building academic confidence, I'm here to help you achieve your goals.

Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I hold a PhD in Communication with 10+ years of teaching experience. All of my courses involve essay writing, and I enjoy supporting students through concept development, outlining, writing, and revision. While I have primarily worked with undergraduate and graduate students, I am also happy to work with high school students, especially those who are nearing the college application process.
Interview Prep

Interview Prep

I have taught interpersonal and organizational communication courses for over 10 years, including a course that specifically prepares college students for elevator pitches, job interviews, and salary negotiations. Additionally, I have served as an interviewer for both graduate programs and professional roles outside of academia.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I have 10+ years of public speaking teaching experience, and I enjoy helping students with each step of the process, including topic selection, source selection, outline development, and speech delivery. Over the past decade, I have helped students overcome speech anxiety and develop the confidence they need to succeed in their public speaking assignments and future professional roles.
Thesis Writing

Thesis Writing

I graduated from my PhD program in 2019, and I understand the pressure of developing and completing a thesis or dissertation. I help students with concept development, timeline management, organizational structure, editing, and proofreading. I have helped students at various levels, including undergraduate students, Master level students, and PhD students.
