History
I have been teaching in some capacity for nearly two decades. From 2004-2010, while still working as a a full-time journalist, I also worked as a part-time SAT/ACT tutor for several Bay Area test prep companies. In 2010, I left the newspaper industry to launch my own tutoring business and have been working as a full-time reading and writing coach ever since. I currently teach about 25 small group and 1:1 classes per week. Over the past 17 years, I have helped hundreds of students reach their reading and writing goals.
Specialties
Unlike many one-size-fits-all tutoring centers, I specialize in Language Arts. I am the go-to person if you want your child to become a faster, sharper, more enthusiastic reader and writer. Need a good grammar doctor for your middle-schooler? Want to boost your teen's score on the Verbal part of the SAT/ACT? Looking for someone to help your high school senior craft winning college application essays? You have come to the right place.
