Graduate student from nyc with a love for dynamic and innovative approaches to literature

About the lesson

My teaching approach is responsive and experimental. My motivation is to foster and grow a student's individual imagination and creativity that is useful not only on an academic level but in navigating the world in one's own unique way. Some techniques I love to use, for example, is assigning various quick-writing prompts to get the words flowing and the student not only thinking but expressing his/herself.
