English Language Learners

I can help non-native speakers express themselves more fluidly by working on fundamentals.

Would I be a good fit for your child?

Here are a few questions that can help you decide.

I'm located on the North Shore of Boston in Melrose.

My schedule varies, but generally weekday afternoons after school.

I'm licensed in Massachusetts to work with kids in grade 5-12.

My expertise is in middle and high school English Language Arts (ELA). I work with kids who need help with things like composition and reading comprehension.

If your child has difficulty with things like spelling or putting together basic sentences, they're probably a little too young for me. I'd be happy to give you some referrals.

Unfortunately I don't, but I can give you some referrals to specialists in other subjects.

If so, please get in touch so we can chat. I'm not a special education teacher, but work regularly with kids who need some extra time and attention.
