Experience
Welcome, and thank you for considering me as a tutor! I just earned my Ph.D. in English, and have over ten years of teaching experience at both college and secondary school levels. I enjoy taking standardized tests, and, more, helping students prepare for them (when I was in high school, I achieved a perfect score on the SAT-without a calculator!). I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your goals.
