I am a graduate of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature, as well as a minor in Environmental Conservation. I have worked with middle and high school students in the subjects of literature, English, and writing or essay editing. I enjoy teaching writing and editing the most as giving students the tools they need to succeed in their future endeavors is key to development. I am very open to discussing what works and what does not for a particular student. If the lesson is not exactly making an impact, then I will find a new approach for my students to try and understand the material. Reading fantasy and sci-fi is a huge passion of mine. I love to snowboard, surf, golf, watch football, and spend every second I can during the summer on the ocean. Tutoring for standardized tests is also an area of expertise for me specifically within the reading and writing sections of said exams.
