History

Established in 2013.

I started working as a tutor in 2011, when I was trained by a nationwide chain. Since then, I’ve been developing my own customized methods to help students and adults meet their educational and professional goals. In 2013 I launched my personal website, and here you find me now on Yelp.

For more than a decade, I’ve been developing my expertise as an English teacher and English tutor in the New Jersey (NJ) and New York (NY) areas, so your English language arts skills can improve. One of my greatest joys is to guide students from confusion or apathy to empowerment and enthusiasm. I hope to cultivate your love of reading and writing as I help you with essays, applications, workplace writing, test preparation, and more. Here’s more about me:

College English professor at Seton Hall U., Kean U., and Union County College, who began as an English Language Arts teacher in the New York City schools.

Also a former paralegal with over 10 years experience at a midtown Manhattan law firm. This unique blend of academic and corporate skills makes me a more dynamic tutor.
