     • Reading Comprehension 
     • Reading Analysis
     • Assigned schoolwork (I can assist without providing the correct answer!)

     • Historical influence
     • Intertextual analysis
     • Literary elements
     • Vocabulary
     *NOTE* While I am trained, willing to prepare and research for, and even experienced in test-prep, it is not my specialty

TEACHING STYLE
    • Down-to-earth tutoring
    • I patiently persist with encouragement and support
    • I think creatively to present concepts in different ways until it is comprehended by your learner
    • While students will be challenged to think deeply, their perspective will always be encouraged and celebrated.  
    • I hope that students feel as welcomed to think as they are challenged in their thinking. 
    • I will read whatever your student is reading; after all, how can I truly understand an assignment if I haven't done it myself?
