I'm Emma! I have a Bachelor's degree with distinction in English literature and a minor in psychology. I gained my CRLA tutoring certification in my first year of college, and spent all four years of schooling as a professional peer tutor. I specialize in advanced reading comprehension, essay writing, reading and writing poetry, and exam preparation. I working with students at multiple levels of proficiency, from Freshmen in their first college writing courses, to Seniors working on capstone projects. Since graduating, I have also working with several high school students preparing for SAT and ACT exams.
My tutoring style is primarily student-led. My ultimate goal is for my students to build the core skills necessary for academic self-sufficiency, including comprehension, analysis, brainstorming, drafting techniques, and editing. Pinpointing which of these skills may need extra attention allows my students to strengthen their overall abilities in reading and writing and build an essay writing practice that feels natural from beginning to end.
