I have scored essays for standardized tests for 2 and a half years. This has included scoring for college entrance exams like the ACT and the SAT. More recently, I have been teaching essay classes through Outschool. I have read so many essays. So so many essays. Literally thousands of essays.

So I have a pretty good understanding of how to achieve the highest score point on a standardized test essay. Ultimately, I understand the components to fantastic writing and I want to share my knowledge with your clever kids.

I enjoy teaching with energy and a sense of humor. I currently teach ESL to Chinese students. Before that, I spent some time as a snowboarding instructor at Park City Mountain Resort. I get a kick out of teaching and I love my students. I work my tail off to help them achieve their goal, whether it is writing an essay, speaking English, or snowboarding.

I studied English at Brigham Young University and received my Bachelors of Arts in April 2011. While studying, I spent a semester in Europe, surveying art at The British Museum, The Louvre, The Musee D'Orsay and many other world renowned museums. I love the humanities, especially the English language!

So enroll with me for a magical writing adventure. Writing is a life skill. My goal is to help your learner feel like a more confident writer.
