I have experience tutoring in reading and writing, as well as reading comprehension and grammar. I am going to school for English and am used to writing professional level English papers. I am going to school to be a teacher and would love to help with whatever your child's needs are.
I am passionate about encouraging others to be their best. Tutoring allows for me to encourage in a setting that limits anxiety and distractions; most times, students shine when they feel less pressure and are motivated beyond the norm.
