I'm Elena! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's Degree in English and I have Master's degree in Adolescent Education with a focus in English. I have experience teaching all high school grade levels, some middle school, and AP Literature! I'm currently working as a high school English teacher!

During my Bachelor's, I was trained as a college-level, one-to-one writing tutor. It was this experience that sparked my passion for education. I truly enjoy working one-on-one with a student, whether it is plotting out a paper; deepening analysis; correcting grammar and spelling; or close-reading literary texts. Most of all, I enjoy learning from my students! Whatever topic you are reading or writing about, I sincerely love learning your perspective and helping you express yourself concisely, efficiently, and gracefully!

I've tutored unofficially since I was in high school. My favorite subject to tutor in is English, with a focus in writing. I love meeting my students, seeing how unique each student is, helping them express themselves through writing, and building their confidence in their own skills.

Feel free to reach out! I'm excited to meet you!
