Experience Summary
I have a wide range of tutoring experience, including English, Mathematics, History, Science, ACT, ASVAB TOEFL, and IELTS prep, and helping students with learning disabilities.
English is my favorite subject to tutor. I’m a grammar and literature nerd, and I love teaching students to express themselves in well-reasoned and colorful writing.
I’m very good with languages: my specialty is teaching English as a second language, I am conversational in Spanish, and I have some background in basic Greek… if anybody’s looking for that!
Teaching Style
I adapt my lessons to fit the specific needs of my students.
My Hobbies
I enjoy reading, hiking, board games, and spending time with my family.
