Sharpen your literature skills with motivational English lessons

Hello, I am Karen. I hold a Masters in Creative Writing and 2+ years of teaching experience, I specialize in offering interactive 1-on-1 lessons tailored to students from grade 8 to high school levels. With a focus on concept clearing, homework assistance, and test preparation, I strive to create engaging and personalized sessions that foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of literature. Through lively discussions and insightful analysis, I help students unravel the complexities of literary works and develop critical thinking skills. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy immersing myself in the world of fiction writing, crafting compelling narratives, and exploring imaginative storytelling techniques. This passion for creative writing often serves as an inspiration for our discussions, enriching the learning experience and igniting students creativity.

In teaching AP English Literature, I focus on reading carefully and thinking deeply about stories, poems, and plays. We talk a lot about what the authors are trying to say and how they use things like characters and symbols to tell their stories. Through writing essays and discussing our ideas, students learn how to express themselves well and understand literature better. I give feedback to help them improve, getting them ready for the AP English Literature exam and beyond.
