Wilson English Tutoring
About
I teach college composition (English 1010) at Prince George's Community College and High School English at Prince George's County Public Schools. I have 10 years teaching experience and 10 years journalism experience, possessing a Master's Degree in English Composition and a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism. Since classes are being online through the summer, my availability is pretty open.
Quintessentially, my favorite part about my job is watching students build confidence in themselves and seeing them succeed.
