University Level English Tutor Experienced with AP Language and AP Literature Exams

About the lesson

My teaching approach is specifically tailored to each student. For AP exams, I use short drills that help students write calmly and effectively under time limits. On a college-preparatory or college level, students can bring in existing work or request prompts and receive in-depth feedback most instructors don't have the time to provide.

About Sara

I am a fourth-year English major well-versed in essay writing and English literature. In the past, I achieved high scores on both the AP Language and AP Literature exam. I can help you improve your writing at a college-preparatory level. If you are already attending university, I can help you score an "A" on an essay or assist with difficult texts.
