About Sherry
An honours English student who studied at the University of British Columbia and the University of Edinburgh, I have over 4000 hours of experience teaching and tutoring. Beginning in 2019, I have over 6 years of experience on this platform, and take pride in being one of the first English tutors on Superprof. Previously, I've worked as a TA (teaching assistant) for English at UBC. I have extensive experience reading and grading essay. My high school students go on to achieve top marks, including extending's in IB and 95%+ on BC 12 English, and go on to be accepted into top Canadian and U.S. universities. My university students consistently score in the A range in English and other essay based-courses. My current highest level of editing is at a PhD candidacy level.
I am currently doing my postgraduate degree at UBC. I've not only been a TA, but held multiple research fellowships at UBC as a paid climate studies, game studies researcher, and tech and AI researcher. In my time at the university, I received the Trek Excellence scholarship, graduated on the Dean's list, and held several academic scholarships in which I was faculty nominated for in my department (Gilean Douglas, Margaret Lawrence). I received a 5 on both my AP Literature and Language exams, and am very familiar with the content in both.

Oftentimes, universities do not properly teach essay writing at their respective level; they assume students were taught how in high school, or have taken another course that did. Understanding the psychology behind what teachers and professors seek in a paper is knowledge only gained with extensive experience, which is information I seek to pass on. My methodology aims to pare down complex writing concepts into the absolute simplest terms possible, with a focus on academic writing. I adapt to each student's existing skill set to ensure they have a secure foundation in essay writing, emphasizing structure. Oftentimes I will also teach formulas for recurring essay types to make the writing process simpler - this includes, but is not limited to: summaries, literature reviews, synthesis, critical analyses, rhetorical analyses, research. During the drafting stage, I will usually give thesis suggestions.
Because this is the age of AI, I will also teach high-school students basic use, and, if AI usage is allowed in class, how to use it as a tool in order to achieve university/masters level essays.
STATISTICS AND FURTHER INFORMATION: My most commonly tutored areas of writing are the following: WRDS and ENGL at UBC, high school and IB English, upper-year essay-based courses in the humanities and liberal arts, and University applications. On average, my students who have previously taken English improve their grade by about 15%. I always aim to explain any edits we make together thoroughly, and want students to walk away understanding these changes. The end goal is to improve to the point of not needing help in the future! I guarantee quality in both my pedagogical approaches with younger students, and editing with university level students. Classes come equipped with my personal "student's guarantee" - if you feel like your writing hasn't improved within a month, I guarantee a full refund. I am extremely invested in each student, and am confident that anyone can improve their writing through these classes. **I'm currently quite booked but respond fairly quickly. I limit my student spots each semester to ensure I have time for every student. To receive a prompt response, please send inquiries with detailed information **

Sherry is an exceptional tutor. Her formidable intellect is evident in every recommendation she makes. My essays were greatly improved by her input and teaching. Above all, she tutors with grace and kindness. I highly highly recommend!
I’ve had an excellent learning experience with Sherry. I’ve been doing English lessons for past two months, and I couldn’t be happier with the progress I have made. She is incredibly patient, and knowledgeable about writing skills. She tailors the lessons to my specific needs and learning style, which has made a huge difference in my understanding and most importantly, confidence.

Sherry was super helpful and very smart.
Sherry was so great and friendly. She helped me a ton with everything. I would really recommend her to anyone looking for some extra help.
Sherry has immensely helped me improve my Political Science papers. I am currently in my second year in university and it has been a tough transition from high school. However, Sherry has helped me develop better structures for my papers. She is extremely caring and ensures that her student's needs are met. I have seen noticeable differences in my work and it has shown through my grades. Could not recommend her more!
She’s helped me in upper year psyc, comms, and history papers! Amazing
Sherry helped my daughter Jess with their 3000 word research paper. Before, Jess was anxious about how to write their paper and how to debate with others. After the sessions, Jess felt more confident with those skills. After the sessions, Jess participated in two group discussions with confidence and got an Extending grade on their paper. In addition, they said that Sherry’s knowledge but especially her patience was what made her a great tutor. I am looking forward to booking another session with Sherry when Jess has another research paper to tackle.
I've known her for a couple of years now as my tutor, and she is the most responsible and patient tutor that I ever had. Even though English is my second language, her passion, creativity and knowledge of academic English amazingly developed my writing and reading skills.
Sherry has been absolutely incredible to work with. The work we do together always gets done well and efficiently and she is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to academic writing. Highly recommend Sherry for anyone seeking a highly skilled and professional tutor.
