Sure my academic background is stellar, but how will I help you? I am exceptionally good at breaking down difficult concepts into their very learnable parts, but my real strength is in making it fun to learn about language. Expect to laugh while you work and leave a session knowing that you have learned about the particular assignment and about learning in general. Some of my literature students have told me that I have changed their lives as well as having made them much stronger readers with a deeper understanding of even difficult texts. Of course, grades go up. Look forward to learning with you.
