I look forward to working with your learner to strengthen his/her reading and writing skills! My approach to tutoring is to address specific coursework or skill-development concerns and to set goals to meet learner needs. To that end, I begin a tutoring session with a learner inventory to assess a learner's present academic strengths and areas of need. Based on the responses on the learner inventory and a conversation with the learner about academic goals, I create a plan for each tutoring session scheduled. Learners are welcome to share assignments or projects they are working on with which they need tutoring assistance or I can provide activities and exercises to address learner needs. Specific Areas of Expertise Include: College Application Essay Writing Academic & Rhetorical Essay Writing Expository Writing Argumentative/Persuasive Writing Writing Skills (grammar, punctuation, syntax, diction, vocabulary, fluidity, etc.) Literary Analysis & Interpretation

2 Degrees
Doctoral Degree in Education from George Washington University
Master's Degree in English from Old Dominion University
Welcome to my classroom!
For 30 years I've helped students appreciate literature, develop their rhetorical and creative writing skills, and better organize and complete tasks. A central goal of my teaching & coaching is empowering students with strategies they can make use of on their own, and in each class I encourage students to participate fully in our sessions together by contributing to class discussions and asking questions.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in English Education, a Master's Degree in Literature, and a Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. My current class offerings include literature studies, book clubs, creative writing and formal essay writing classes, and Executive Function coaching.
When I'm not teaching, I love spending time with my family and traveling! :)
