English with Karin M.

Hi – I can help all aspects of English, including critical reading, persuasive writing, comparative literature, public speaking and ACT/SAT/AP test strategies. I have a Creative Writing MFA, a Communications BS, and write professionally. I've taught and lectured at universities, schools and with individuals around Chicagoland as well as in the Bay Area. I customize study plans with learners and their advocates to utilize existing abilities and add new techniques to reach personal and scholastic goals. My students have said: "she really knows how to get us engaged and how to pique our interest; she teaches and explains aspects of literature well;" "very alert about the world, knows about almost everything;" and “I just wanted to thank you for all of your help and guidance. I was totally lost, a poor reader, and short on time. With your help, I polished my writing skills, became a better reader, and also a better quick-thinker and formulator of thoughts. Thank you for all of your encouragement and support.” Please contact me to create a personalized tutoring package, and good luck with your educational aspirations!
