Experienced teacher, writer and editor with over 30 years of experience offers tutoring for high school and university students

Dr. Avery has supported me in various aspects during my high school English learning journey. Being an international student, I had frustrating time with countless challenges. Like everyone who is weak in English, I couldn’t understand course expectations, develop own opinions, nor convey my ideas in understandable words. Luckily, I meet Dr. Avery who not only teaches me correct ways of organizing essays, but also encourages me to think critically. With regards to analyze literature works, her sophisticated approach and detailed explanations help me to understand important messages behind simple words. When proofreading my essays, she always discusses with me to respect my ideas while educating me better ways to express them. All experiences working with her have brought me stronger confidences in both my English skills and my capability of becoming an independent thinker.

Besides academics, Dr. Avery acts like a life mentor and a sincere friend to me. She is very friendly with high agreeableness, which makes times discussing literature works with her especially comfortable and pleasant. By resonating easily with both authors and students, Dr. Avery connects me with these authors, which allows me to develop literature appreciation ability. More importantly, she inspires me to apply lessons learned from readings to excel in real life.

As someone who experienced difficulties in English and now overcome all past challenges, I would sincerely recommend Dr. Avery as a tutor. Dr. Avery has taught me that it’s never impossible for anyone to become proficient with and feel passionate about writing. So, through writing this recommendation, I hope people like me before can seize this opportunity and enjoy learning English.
