Tutor in New York, New York

I am a kid-friendly, experienced tutor and classroom teacher, able and motivated to teach all levels and grades of ELA: reading, writing, literature, special authors, Shakespeare, essays, poetry, critical thinking, close reading, SAT subject prep. I studied under Prof. Sir Christopher Ricks at Boston University and went on to do an MPhil at Oxford University. I have privately tutored students at all levels-- gifted to struggling students, middle-school to college age, affluent families to foster children. I home-schooled a high-school girl who went from failing her writing assignments to achieving a 99% on her Regents exam. My rates start at $50/lesson depending on where we meet (your place or a library). Résumé and references available upon request
