My lessons are based on English literature and comprehension. I specialize in essay-writing help, teaching the correct format and layout. I am able to help teach AP literature and language. For middle school (younger levels) I focus more on reading comprehension. For high school age, if needed I can help provide in-depth explanations and lessons of assigned readings. High school level AP students will practice practical essay prompts that appear on the test. All students looking to improve their English reading, writing, and comprehension skills are welcome.
