Emily E. Axelrod English Tutor

Welcome Learners!

No matter where you are in life – a student, a recent graduate, or a member of the workforce, chances are you have some reading and writing-related goals. Wouldn't it be great to meet those goals and feel at ease along the way? I'm an English professor and former paralegal, who also works as a private English tutor in New Jersey (NJ) and New York (NY). I'm dedicated to helping people improve their English Language Arts skills. Here's more about my tutoring practices:

• I work with ages 8 through adult to improve English skills, and to help with test preparation.

• I promote a supportive and positive environment by taking a holistic approach to tutoring. I can help determine outside factors that affect academic performance, such as lack of sleep, fear of failure, or anxiety. I'll help you work through some of these academic trouble spots, or refer you elsewhere if you need help outside the scope of my services.

• I'm patient and sensitive to each student’s needs.

• I provide customized lessons based on your personal learning goals, in accordance with each state's learning standards.

• I make sessions engaging, with techniques such as timed-writing exercises and readings that match your interests.
