Shakespeare PhD: tutoring in literature & in writing about literature
- $125 / h
- Davenport , California ( 95017 )
- 0 miles
While earning my PhD in Literature (Shakespeare), I also worked as a Shakespearean dramaturg (a researcher, writer, and educator) for productions of Shakespeare’s plays, both for a theatre troupe that was a part of my university and for a professional theatre company. Attending rehearsals allowed me to become steeped in Shakespeare’s language in a special way. I would liken it to attending rehearsals for a musical performance. Of course, it is possible to revel in Shakespeare’s artistry solel... Read more

I began tutoring as a way to support myself through college. I'd originally started working as an as pair, which was great experience with all the ages, but realized that my studies in education were more applicable to tutoring. By the time I graduated, the need for my services had expanded and I'd grown to love catering each lesson to each particular student's mind. I was teaching, but able to give adequate attention to each child and adult in the most effective and pleasant way possible. I ... Read more
