I have been teaching English literature and language for over 25 years and love working with middle and high school students to help them develop a love of reading that will last a lifetime. I am also... passionate about helping students achieve their goals by becoming better writers. Essay writing really isn't that difficult with 1 on 1 attention. I have experience teaching in many different systems including American, IB and IGCSE (in the UK). I have also acted in and produced many school plays and enjoy creating lively and active lessons to bring the material alive for you. I have lived in Canada, England, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Qatar and now the USA, and I always like talking to my students about travel experiences and their dreams for the future.read more

Hi. I’m Catherine. I love reading books and talking about books and helping students understand what is so wonderful about books! I also love helping students find better ways to express themselves ... in their writing so their true personalities can shine through - whether that is through academic essay writing, creative writing, or personal essays. I know not everyone finds it easy to understand Dickens or Shakespeare or how to write essays effectively, but I am here to help make it more fun and easier so your life at school is less stressful. I can’t wait to get started making your life easier!read more
