About Sarah
I graduated from UC Santa Cruz in 2005 with a B.A. in Literature and in 2006 graduated with my Master's in education. I spent the next seven years at a large, urban high school teaching ELA 9-12 and Mythology as Senior English as well as AVID, an in-school program that tutors as well as coordinates tutoring. After another stint in grad school where I gained a Master's in Mythology and substitute taught Middle and High School ELA, I joined another large, urban high school and taught ELA 10th and 12th specifically. For the last three years I have been teaching in Elementary, 5th grade and Special Education K-5 students. I have nearly all levels of writer under my belt, and my graduate school experiences have given me the experience to mentor adult writers through graduate level thesis writing.

I have taught at all levels of ELA and I can help just about anyone to read and write clearly and effectively!
In my classes you will: learn new and specific vocabulary for effective writing, play writing games to test your creativity and humor, read short passages of top quality literature and analyze them, create extensive mind-maps to pool your thinking, and in the process learn to use current and free technology like Google Docs and Slides among others to edit error free essays! Former students of all ages have always commented that my choice of fun, interesting and thought provoking activities make learning easier, and so will you! I have a Master's in Education as well as a Master's in World Mythology, which sets my curriculum apart for its timeless tales and exposure to the classical world. Lessons from me would benefit anyone from kids to adults, and I cater to cowards. Never been confident about your writing abilities? Never fear! Ever wondered what the Trojan War was REALLY about?

I am thrilled to write this recommendation for Sarah Redd, my High School English teacher, who is now offering English lessons on Superprof. I had the privilege of being Sarah's student for 2 years, and it was truly a transformative experience.
Sarah has a remarkable gift for teaching. Her passion for literature and language is contagious, and it made every class engaging and inspiring. She has a unique ability to make complex concepts accessible and relevant to students of all levels. Whether we were studying Shakespeare or analyzing contemporary novels, Sarah always found creative ways to make the material come alive.
What sets Sarah apart is her unwavering dedication to her students' success. She went above and beyond to ensure that each student understood the material and felt supported in their learning journey. Sarah took the time to provide personalized feedback on our assignments, encouraging us to think critically and develop our own voices as writers.
Sarah's impact extends far beyond the classroom. She is not just a teacher but also a mentor, always ready to offer guidance and support. She instilled in me a love for literature and a confidence in my writing abilities that have stayed with me long after graduation.
I have no doubt that Sarah will be an exceptional tutor on Superprof. Her passion, dedication, and expertise make her the perfect choice for anyone looking to improve their English skills. I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and supportive English tutor.
