I'm a language and literacy educator with nearly two decades of experience helping students of all ages find their voice — in English and beyond.
I hold an M.A. in TESOL from The New School and a New Jersey ESL/bilingual certification. My background spans high school classrooms in New Jersey and college-preparatory English instruction in Rio de Janeiro, where I also coordinated an AP Language program. I'm fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, with working knowledge of Italian and French — so I understand firsthand what it means to learn a language as an outsider and grow into it from the inside.
My tutoring covers English language development, reading and writing at all levels, essay and research writing, academic vocabulary, and content-area subjects including history, the humanities, science and math. I work with multilingual learners, students with diverse academic backgrounds, and anyone looking to sharpen their communication skills.
I bring a calm, patient presence to every session. My goal isn't just to get you through the assignment — it's to help you understand it, own it, and feel more confident the next time.
