Hello! I'm Asha, a passionate and dedicated tutor with over 8 years of experience helping students excel in writing and English. I graduated magna cum laude from Smith College with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and African American Studies, and I’m currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Social Psychology at New York University. Throughout my academic journey, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the intricacies of effective communication and critical analysis, which I bring into my tutoring sessions to create a supportive and enriching learning environment for my students. I specialize in writing and English instruction, and I’ve had the privilege of teaching a diverse range of students, from middle schoolers to college undergraduates. My teaching experience is broad and varied, including designing and facilitating writing courses, tutoring English to students abroad, and leading college-level seminars on culture and society. Additionally, I have led English Language Arts classes for middle school students, where I developed and implemented comprehensive lesson plans tailored to meet the diverse learning needs of each student.
I believe that learning should be both challenging and enjoyable, so I use a variety of teaching methods to keep lessons engaging and relevant to each student's goals and interests. I’m committed to helping my students achieve their academic aspirations, whether they’re focused on improving their writing skills, preparing for exams, honing their college prep essays—including the Common App and supplemental essays—or deepening their understanding of English literature. I make it a priority to be accessible and responsive, ensuring that all questions are answered promptly and thoroughly. I encourage open communication and welcome any feedback or resources that can further benefit my students' learning experience. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or if you'd like to schedule a lesson. I look forward to working with you and helping you succeed in your academic journey!
