About Shayla
I am originally from North Carolina, USA, but by this point have lived in so many places around the globe I've lost track.
I have my Bachelor's in English Literature and Creative Writing from Saint Mary's College, Indiana that was also partially completed in Seoul, South Korea during my study abroad period.
I have my Master's in European and Global Studies, with a concentration in Global Security Issues and Social Policies from the University of Padua, Italy.
I am currently working on a second Master's in British and Irish Studies with a concentration in politics and literature at the University of Humboldt, Berlin, Germany.
I have also worked and attended international academic conferences in Peru, Australia, and Serbia.
I have a deep passion for literature, international studies and history. When I'm not reading or researching, I can usually be found practicing my violin.

I have been tutoring students for the SAT for many years now and know the best way to get your skills up to par, fast! We will have fun, interactive discussions as we practice the questions to build your confidence and awareness of what the questions are truly asking for. Each lesson is individually tailored to each student's unique needs and we will work together to make the SAT easy peasy.
A typical SAT prep lesson is between 1-2 hours, but the time goes very quickly when we do it together. This is a space where you can ask any question at all and not feel shy or embarrassed for not knowing something. Curiosity, Inquisitiveness and Investigation are all great traits, that sadly get suppressed sometimes in school, or even in our own minds, due to lack of confidence. I will encourage you to ask the questions you have, and can happily provide the answers as by this point I am well versed in all things SAT! You will see a change in your attitude and feel empowered to conquer this imposing test.
In the words of the late, great James Baldwin, “The victim who is able to articulate the situation of the victim has ceased to be a victim: he or she has become a threat.”
So, in Gen-Z terms: let's make you into the baddest academic weapon alive!!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
I had my daughter take creative writing lessons with Shayla over the summer and she had so much fun! Very excited to have Shayla back as a tutor for this summer as well. My daughter has a real passion for writing and storytelling that Shayla has greatly encouraged and it's great to see her grow in her skill and be so enthusiastic to share what she's learned from her lessons
My son LOVES Percy Jackson and all things having to do with Greek Gods, so I signed him up for tutoring for fun with Shayla after school and I could not be happier with the results. He is so excited after every lesson to chat about what he's learned and he has become quite popular with his friends for having such great stories to share. I am so happy that Shayla is such an engaging storyteller, and is so sweet to answer my son's many, many questions haha XD
My daughter is in 8th grade and has been having English tutoring sessions with Shayla for the past two months. My daughter says lessons are a lot of fun and that Shayla's tutoring has helped her a lot in her English course. She now tells me she wants to be a writer when she grows up! I'm very pleased with the lessons
I have to take poetry this semester and didn't like it at all, but Shayla helped me get into it more and come up with good creative ideas for assignments so I'm doing better now
Miss Shayla is very kind and patient. I have a lot of fun learning english writing with her. English is not my first language and in the beginning I struggled a lot. I really enjoy her writing exercises and am better in my class now
Shayla helped me get into my first and second choice colleges!!! I had a lot of trouble with my essays, but after talking with her we planned out a clear way I could present myself to the college that best highlighted my personality and unique attributes. She had a ton of ideas and really helped with making the writing polished and interesting. She also helped a lot with other questions I had about CommonApp and picking classes
Shayla is such a sweetheart!! She's very kind and enthusiastic in teaching, I feel like she really cares about my learning and is invested in my success. I highly recommend her!
She always makes sure her teachings are understood thoroughly and uses any misunderstanding as a learning opportunity. I felt very comfortable asking questions and have gotten much better grades since I've started receiving tutoring from her!!
Shayla has helped me multiple times with essays. She provides feedback on my writing and I've improved immensely since our first lesson. Over time she has pointed out recurring weaknesses in my writing and we were able to address them together. I absolutely recommend Shayla as a tutor as I've benefited a lot from her lessons!
Shayla was very kind tutor that took the time to explain things in detail and made sure I understand everything. Definitely helped to improve my grades in my political science class. Thank youu :)
