Looking for rapid progress in reading and writing? As a certified English teacher, seasoned as a professional writer and editor and by 20+ years teaching and tutoring, I draw from a sizable toolbox to speed advancement and go above and beyond to achieve results. As readers, my students learn to see the big picture and get the facts straight. As writers, they gain focus and depth. English can be baffling because it is a hybrid with diverse roots and rules. I delight in helping students crack the code and gain mastery of this language of more than a million words. Available online and in person, I tailor lessons to individual needs, including help with state exams and basic math. As a history buff with a BA in the subject, I offer knowledgeable guidance in social studies. My students range from kindergarteners to adults and include ESL learners.
Megan has been working with our family since fall of 2020. It’s been nearly 5 years now, initially tutoring our older daughter and now our son who is 6 years old. Megan is patient, caring, and smart. Our children have developed their reading and math skills with Megan that has supplemented school beautifully. My son looks forward to the sessions he spends with Megan. They don’t feel like lessons to him because she engages him in conversation and makes the topics interesting. She also takes walks with him in the backyard to teach him about plants and they will pick ivy together. He has developed an interest in horticulture because of their time together haha. It’s like a wonderful friendship. We can’t say enough wonderful things about Megan. She connects honestly and brings joy to our kids. For that we are so grateful to her.
