As a former book publishing professional who worked at Knopf, Random House, and Workman Publishing, I am proud to have taught AP Language and Composition and trained for teaching AP Literature class with a key focus on poetry. Moreover, and in my longtime work as both tutor and teacher of both middle and high school students, I have guided writers of all ages and abilities to give each communicator the skills to think deeply, to cultivate an individual voice and style, and ultimately to discover true confidence to write well now and for always.
