Tutor profile: Marissa K.

Why are you passionate about writing?

In general, the art of writing helps us figure out what we want to say and how we want to say it. I got into my line of work because of my passion for writing and reading, and I consistently write on a daily basis. I love helping students look at themselves as writers and read through their work critically.

What makes you an excellent candidate to tutor literature?

I have dedicated my career to studying the art of teaching writing and reading, and upon my years as a student studied multiple works of literature spanning over many time periods in history. In all of teaching experience I have taught multiple works of literature, and deeply understand their significance.
