Experience
I am a tutor who excels at writing and literature. I can help students of all ages and skill levels with reading, writing, and literature. I also love working with students on test prep, particularly the reading and writing sections of the exams. I'm also available to tutor ESL. I received my degree in Literature through Texas A&M University. I continued on with my passion for reading and writing at San Francisco State University, where I earned my master's in Creative Writing. I've been helping students with these subjects for many years now. It's not important to me how skilled or advanced someone is as a writer or reader - I believe that everyone can benefit from meeting with me and enhancing their abilities. My hope is that my students come to appreciate the craft of writing and reading, and that they leave our sessions together more confident in themselves than they were before. I aim to make my tutoring sessions as fun and informative as possible. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy working on my novel, rock climbing, practicing yoga, playing video games, and reading interesting books. A lot of my time is taken up by my adorable Australian Labradoodle.
