Christopher P.
Private tutor in Kendall, FL
Education
I recently graduated from the University of Miami with honors in English Literature and a minor in History. During the three years that I was in college, I took 15 English classes and a total of 20 writing-credit classes. I wrote over 30 college-level essays, finishing with a 3.9 GPA in my English major. In my final year, I chose to write an optional senior thesis in which I analyzed literary meaning in William Blake's epic poem, "America a Prophecy." For my work, I was recognized as the honoree for UM's "Outstanding Student in Literary Studies Award".
Experience
I have two years of tutoring experience in English and History at the middle school and high school levels and have edited many essays for college classmates. Whether you require assistance in editing essays, understanding English homework assignments, or preparing for the SAT and ACT Reading and/or Writing sections, I can help you hone in on the skills necessary to improve and enhance your control of the English language.

Hobbies
I am very passionate about literature, writing, and rhetoric. I greatly enjoy sharing the benefits of these subjects with my students and helping them realize how fundamental they are to everyday success. I have accomplished this with my students by giving my lessons a real-world application whenever the opportunity arises to do so. However, the primary priority will always be to cater my lesson to your needs.
