About Wendy


Bio

Hello. My name is Wendy, and I am a recently retired English teacher. I spent 20 years in the classroom, and now tutor middle and high school students who need help with reading and writing. I believe in personalizing instruction according to a student's learning style and specific interests. Whether I'm working with reluctant writers or those performing above grade level, I offer engaging lessons, expert instruction, and a positive learning atmosphere.

Knowledgeable Tutor

She is very clear in instructing, and knowledgeable in her subject. She doesn’t rush and explain the lessons clearly. My son is extremely happy with her lessons. I will recommend her to any of my friends and family for their children if needed help in high school honors English.
