Services + Pricing
I work to get to know each student by starting where you are, gaining understanding of what hasn’t worked for you before, and guiding you to recognize and embrace your own learning style and profile.
Writing help
I can help you organize your ideas, polish your grammar, understand and use punctuation rules, and structure your writing in a way that clearly expresses your great ideas.
Independent school applications
Applying to independent schools takes time and planning. I help families and students organize that process, research schools, and produce an application that will present the student’s best, most authentic self.
College admissions essays
From understanding the prompt to generating ideas to polishing a compelling personal statement, I can help you write a memorable story that will get you noticed by college admissions readers.
Executive functioning coaching
Let’s talk about planning and organizational tools that fit the way your brain works and can help keep you on track and reduce your stress with schoolwork.
Reading comprehension
Let’s try something different - we can even read together - to help you understand what your teachers are asking you to get out of a text.
Homework help - English, humanities and social sciences, lab reports, French, Spanish
Together, we’ll break your assignments down into manageable parts so that you can tackle them with less stress. I can also help you study for tests, rehearse for presentations, and complete long-term projects.
Test prep
I don’t consider the work I do strictly geared toward test preparation, but I can help you work through practice test questions, show you test-taking strategies, and help you polish your vocabulary so that you can approach these exams with confidence.
Using your accommodations
If you have learning accommodations based on educational testing, I can help you navigate the process to request them from your teachers and use them to your advantage.
Resumes, emails, letters of inquiry, cover letters
When you need to present yourself as a polished, capable prospective employee, I can help you create job application materials that reflect your personality and highlight your skills and talents.
