About
Hi! I'm Emma!
I'm from southern Wisconsin and a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin - Parkside. My degree is in English Language Arts. I tutor in literature, English, and grammar. I also... have read a wide variety of books, and would love to help you become more familiar with them.
During my time at Parkside, I took several grammar classes and more than a few literature classes. I have read and written about everything from young adult novels like "Twilight" to 19th century British poems. There is nothing that I love more than analyzing literature and devouring books.
I have about eight years of tutoring experience under my belt, as I started to tutor other students my freshman year of high school. My classmates used to share their essays with me for feedback and grammatical help. When I went to college, I also tutored other students who weren't English majors. Additionally, I was on the staff of the literary magazine. After we selected stories, poems, or articles, we would coach the authors through fixing minute mistakes in their works.
My entire life has been centered around reading and writing, and I would love to share that passion with you!read more

I was one of the main editors for
my school's literary magazine, Straylight. I would take home copi... es
of the first draft, which could be over 200 pages long, and edit them
over the course of a few days. Then, I participated in "editing days"
that were up to eight hours long. In the end, I was crucial in the
school delivering error-free editions of the magazine.read more
