Kristy has been an influential mentor in my writing journey. As my high school English teacher, she went above and beyond guiding my interests in English, from fostering meaningful discussions in class, to mentoring the creative arts club, to workshopping and providing feedback on many essays for college & summer program applications. Throughout our interactions she has been patient, insightful, and most importantly, invested in fostering my growth as a writer and a student. I would recommend her as a tutor to anyone looking for help with reading comprehension or essays!
Kristy was my high school English teacher. She is such a patient and thoughtful listener, and she understands that each student is an individual who has unique experiences. Also, with her help on my college essays, I eventually got into Stanford, Yale, Princeton, and Columbia. Overall, she is an incredible teacher and person, and I still keep in touch with her to this day.
I had Mrs. A in high school and she was the teacher that made me enjoy English again. Without her I never would have picked up creative writing in college. She's so sweet and encouraging, and she cares so much about her students. She helped me so much with my college essays as well and was able to elevate my work to a whole new level, pointing out things I never even thought about. They were incredibly personal essays as well, and she made me feel so comfortable sharing that information with her, showing sympathy and giving me the power to tell my story in the best possible way. I genuinely could not recommend her enough.
Kristy is an amazing teacher—I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and thoughtful English teacher who can take your writing to the next level. I’ve personally been taught by Kristy and seen how she provides tailored, constructive feedback on my writing with an attention to detail that’s second to none. I am a far stronger writer and communicator today because of her expert instruction and patient teaching style. Would definitely recommend Kristy to anyone looking for an English tutor who truly cares about your success/growth and will work hard with you to help you achieve your goals!
