I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools.

I try to empower students to learn how to improve their writing. I start by showing what works well, the strengths of the piece itself. I then show them what can be improved in the work with further revision. I often will use examples of first drafts of famous and acclaimed authors, and sometimes use my own work as an example of poor first drafts and how a work can improve with revision. I have a passion for writing and literature that is usually contagious. I have over 15 years experience in a writing, editing, and reporting capacity covering news and publishing industries, and higher education. I also have formal training and education on how to edit, write and give formal, positive feedback for improving manuscripts and texts. My work has appeared in numerous publications and periodicals.

I have tutored students before in the elementary and middle school grade levels. I have young siblings who I help out also. I do not have a degree in teaching but I feel that I provide the same amount of experience. I haven't had a lot of experience so I would like to gain more through teaching my new students. I am very patient and always help my students understand not just how to do it, but why we do it. I do not give up on students who struggle with work and I understand their needs. I am very smart and willingly to help any student in need.
