WELCOME to Fall 2026! I'm excited to meet all of you this semester in my online class and during in-person tutoring sessions. Feel free to contact me as described below or visit me in person at the Watsonville ILC for English or ESL tutoring. For now, I'd like to share that I'm an Associate English Instructor and senior writing tutor at this college. I'll chat with you on Canvas in our introductions activity or see you in the ILC!

Student Support: Please get in touch with me via the course's Canvas email or the email posted on the class syllabus. I will reply within 24 hours, Mon. - Fri. (until 3 pm on Friday). I may sometimes need to reply to Friday messages on the following Monday. I do not correspond on holidays, although I may post an announcement at these times.

Tutoring: Starting the second week of the semester, I am available to ALL students as an English/ESL tutor in the Watsonville ILC on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, 8:30 -11 am & 12-3 pm. On Wednesdays, I am available for in-person tutoring in the morning from 8:30-11:30 am. I will update this schedule as needed, so double-check my hours here before coming to see me at the ILC. You may, of course, consult with other English tutors during the ILC's open hours. Note that Gmail tutoring is also available as described at the ILC website linked above. Also, there is English tutoring in the Writing Center at the Aptos campus, in person and by Gmail: Writing Center.
