I am a professional tutor with over 15 years of experience teaching children, adolescent and adults in both public and private schools. I received the 2021 Top Educator Award from The America Library of Poetry. I am also professionally trained in dyslexic intervention at Charles Armstrong School in Belmont California in Wilson Reading System, a rigorous supervised training program facilitating dyslexic interventions in children and young adults.
I specialize in one-on-one and group reading improvement with the eventual goal of aligning reading capacities with ELA Common Core curriculum instruction for grades K-12 and Verbal SAT and ACT preparation. I also do college admission counseling and mentoring for all ages.
I have served as a fifth-grade teacher and language specialist at Charles Armstrong School, but I’ve worked as an English Teacher and Drama Teacher to high school students grades 8 to 12. My sessions are rigorous as well as highly creative, often incorporating games to promote engagement.
I have taught as an instructor at Phillips Andover Academy's renowned Summer study program. I have tutored elementary and high-schoolers, master's and Ph.D. Candidates, and creative writers in the genres of non-fiction, biography, and fiction. I am a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Hawaii, (now residing in the Bay Area) and I hold my master's degree in English & American Literature from Mills College, one of the country’s top English graduate programs touted for its commitment to identity expression and social justice.
I hold my BA in Cultural Anthropology from Brown University and Fordham in the Bronx, where I was a division one soccer player, captain, and Ivy League Champion. I am also a Tennis Academy Director in the Bay Area.
I make my sessions convenient for families by doing in-home sessions, within a 5 mile radius of Emeryville, California, and virtually from anywhere.
