Hi, I’m Susan. I’m a certified English teacher (7–12) and a certified reading specialist with 30 years of classroom experience and over 25 years of private tutoring. I support students in grades five through college with reading comprehension, analytical writing, and ELA test preparation. Before beginning instruction, I consult with the student and/or parent to clarify goals and review any assignments so each session starts with purpose and momentum. My instruction emphasizes practical, transferable strategies that help students read closely, think critically, and communicate effectively in academic settings. I tailor every lesson to the student’s strengths and needs and maintain open, responsive communication with families. Please reach out for a consultation or to schedule a session.

Dedicated tutor

My daughter has greatly benefited from working with Susan. She has guided her on how to improve her writing, especially in using textual evidence to support her ideas, and has provided thoughtful support in the areas where she needs the most growth. We are looking forward to continuing working with her and seeing more improvements during the school year!
