Anna K. - Professor of English at NYU. Nurturing and supportive writer who cares about students' success! Specializes in college applications, essay writing, and other creative needs.

I earned my MFA in Fiction Writing from New York University, where I focused on literature, poetry, and philosophy. Writing has always been my way of exploring big questions about what it means to be human, and I love helping others use writing to discover and express their own ideas. Alongside my own creative work, I have years of experience supporting students with college essays, English papers, literature reviews, and creative writing projects. Whether it’s shaping a personal statement, crafting a compelling argument, or strengthening clarity and style, I work closely with students to make the process approachable and rewarding. As a teacher and mentor, my priority is building confidence and helping writers find their authentic voice. I provide personalized, thoughtful feedback and create an encouraging environment where students feel supported as they develop their skills. For me, storytelling—whether academic or creative—isn’t just about strong writing; it’s about unlocking ideas and learning how to share them effectively. That belief drives both my own work and my teaching, and it’s what I aim to pass on to every student I work with.
