I love working one-on-one with my students and seeing them get excited about improving their English and writing skills. I love building a teacher-student bond with them, getting to know their interests, and having fun with them during our sessions. My students often hire me long-term because they enjoy my teaching style and see very quickly that my compassionate and expert instruction helps them build their English and writing skills as well as their confidence!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Before our first meeting, I always speak with my students (or their parents) on the phone so I can understand what their needs are and how I can help. Once we set a date and time, I meet with my student either via Zoom or in person, typically in the comfort of their home. Due to COVID-19, I always wear a mask when I tutor in-person.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an M.F.A. in Writing from Sarah Lawrence College and a B.S. in Literature from SUNY-Oneonta.
I have been teaching at the college level since 1992 and tutoring privately since 2000. I am also a journalist, having published in Woman's Day, Family Circle, Crain's New York Business, Education Update, and other publications.
