I graduated Cum Laude from Skidmore College with Honor in English, two writing awards, and I now have more than 10 years of tutoring experience. I can help you with anything to do with language: reading, writing, interpreting, etc.

I am truly passionate about language, and I hope to help my tutees find the joy in their assignments. I strive to be very agreeable and adaptable: I've tutored all kinds of personalities, and I see it as part of the job to communicate in whatever way you, the tutee, find most comfortable. I will be receptive and responsive to your particular needs regarding your learning and communication styles, and I will always bring energy to our sessions. Send me a message and we can talk more about what you're looking for!

I am available for in-person or online sessions. **I am also happy to mark up your piece with edits and comments remotely, without a session.**

I am also available to edit and workshop creative writing pieces.

I tutored for three years in my college Writing Center, helping students translate their ideas into effective language and supporting them at any stage of the writing process. Before that, I worked an additional 2 years in my high school Writing Center. My own writing was recognized throughout my college career: I won two writing awards, as well as Honors for my English capstone. I have thought a lot about what makes writing flow, move, excite, and persuade, and I have spent more than 5 years helping others explore and expand their own writing abilities.
