About

I am a dedicated, detail-oriented English teacher certified in Special Education with ten years of experience supporting students of all ages. I am also a certified college essay coach. I specialize in individualized reading instruction, writing instruction, and support with executive functions (e.g. organization, study habits, planning, time management -- skills that help you learn, work, and manage daily life). I am passionate about working with students who benefit from skills-based practice to reinforce the work they're doing in school, enrichment opportunities, homework help, and/or coaching in effective strategies to improve executive functioning. I am happy to meet with your student, evaluate their needs, and create an individualized curriculum that aligns with their grade level goals. I believe personalized instruction is key for optimizing one-on-one and small group tutoring. My availability is most flexible for tutoring remotely via Zoom, but I can do in-person sessions as well. Please feel free to send me a message if your student would benefit from support in any of these areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

All of my students have different personalities, preferences, and needs. I am deliberate about getting to know each student as we progress through their individualized curriculum. I also maintain frequent and consistent communication with caregivers to ensure that we are unified in working together to support their student. Finally, I assess students' progress during the beginning tutoring sessions very closely to adjust my plan for supporting them accordingly. In other words, during those first few sessions, I gain insights about best practices, necessary frequency of tutoring to yield success, and even important information about what motivates each student to strive for excelling in this particular academic area.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have a bachelor's degree in English and a master's degree in Teaching and Special Education. I am state-certified to teach K-12 English and Special Education in New Jersey. I am also a certified college essay coach specializing the the Common Application Personal Statement and college-specific supplemental essays.
