About
I am always able to find the best way to help each individual student. Everyone learns in different ways, so no one can be taught the same. I have been tutoring high school students at a local high school in Raleigh for about a year, and am eager to help others improve academically, specifically through writing. It is a passion of mine and I strive to help each individual find their style.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, I need to get to know the student. It helps if we feel comfortable with each other, so I enjoy getting to know each other a bit. I ask them what they hope to accomplish through tutoring, and we outline their strengths and weaknesses in the topic. Each student has a unique writing style; I hope to help them embrace their individuality and exemplify their best selves through their writing, whether it be through college level research essays or high school creative writing.

Mostly high school, but also some younger children.
