English PhD with extensive reading/writing tutoring experience
I have a PhD in English Literature and over 15 years experience teaching college literature and writing courses; additionally, I have worked as a college writing tutor for undergraduate and graduate students on an array of topics. I enjoy teaching in a classroom setting, but love working one-on-one even more. I find it satisfying to work closely with individual students and witness their growing confidence and abilities as writers.

Testimonials
Ruth G. from New York, NY I am new to the tutoring world and didn't know what to expect or if it would even be worth it. I met with several tutors before picking one that I felt would best fit my needs. I am really lucky to have met Shelly and I've already seen my writing and grades improve in the month that I have worked with her. She is always willing and ready to work on anything that I bring to her. Instead of doing my work for me, she teaches me how I should do it -- so it is a real learning experience. She also brings handouts to help me address the areas that I want to improve in. If you send her what you want to work on ahead of time, she will also look through it before your session. I would recommend her for anyone who wants help in any aspects of English/Writing.
Mohamed B. from Brooklyn, NY I met Shelly quickly for one time, but she made a difference in my life. My paper was due in a few days so it was my fault that I contacted her at the last minute. She read my master's paper and she put me on the right track by guiding me to pick up a clear and straightforward thesis. Not only that, she followed up on my work with a plan for my paper even though she knew that I couldn't schedule any more classes with her. She is a true educator. Most importantly, she is a human - she understands what a working parent goes through when he/she goes back to school to better his/her life. Shelly is a genuine teacher. I highly recommend her.
