Experience
I am a tutor in Brooklyn, New York. I am a graduate of Bates College with a major in English and theater.As a teaching artist, I work with students in schools across the city. I help students improve acting, public speaking, and improv skills. In addition, I help STEM students improve presentation skills and increase confidence, something that I find very fulfilling. Whether a person is writing an essay or making a presentation, it is liberating to be able to effectively communicate what is intended.As a student in middle school, I struggled with writing and was not a good writer. Thanks to the help of a writing tutor in high school, I developed a love for writing. I am grateful to have had a tutor to help me, and am also grateful to be able to continue that work myself. Writing skills have been important throughout my life. It is satisfying to be able to turn a thought into a written, persuasive argument.I tutor students in reading, writing, essay editing, literature, public speaking, and English. In addition, I also assist students who are preparing for the SAT. I love to work with students on grammatical structure, practice writing assignments, and essays. My experience includes working with students from the ages of eight through 18.In my free time, I enjoy theater, soccer, camping, canoeing, and hiking.
