Hello, I’m

Linguist, Educator, Explorer, IB Examiner

I help students like you break down complex texts, develop clear arguments, and write essays that actually say what you want them to say.

Testimonials

  • "Literally, Robyn's tutoring saved my grade in English HL. I got a 4 in my mock exam and was freaking out, but then after one month, I jumped to a solid 6+. She showed me this super clear way to break down analysis into manageable chunks—like a formula almost. Now I actually know what I'm doing instead of just winging it, the kind of stuff that used to give me major anxiety. And the best part is I learned tricks for finding key arguments super quickly. I actually look forward to the lessons—weird to say about English, right? My teacher even asked what was different, as my essays are so much better structured now!”

  • "I was stuck at around 650 in SAT Reading for months before finding Robyn. She taught me these game-changing strategies for the reading passages-especially those brutal Command of Evidence ones! After 4 sessions, I hit 770 on the real test. The best part? We focused on actual critical thinking skills I could use. These strategies didn't just help with the SAT.-I used the grammar and writing skills in my college application essays and they're so much stronger. My Northwestern interviewer actually commented on how clearly I think through arguments! Plus, knowing I had such a strong Reading score gave me the confidence to apply Early Decision to my dream school. Can't believe how much of a difference just a month of focused tutoring made.”

    Maya Patel, Grade 12

  • "English Lit was my worst subject. I was getting Cs and barely scraping Bs on my practice papers. Robyn showed me how to actually analyse poems and not just say the obvious stuff about metaphors. Two months later, I scored an A* on my mocks! The way Robyn teaches made such a difference. She mapped out this foolproof method for planning essays, from breaking down prompts to building arguments that flow seamlessly. What really helped was how she taught me to trust my own interpretations rather than just  memorising what LitCharts say about the texts. Now I actually enjoy breaking down texts in English Lit. The best part is that the lessons go by so fast because we're always actively working through texts; it never feels like boring tutoring."
