Daniela Souza has taught IB English Literature for fifteen years across schools in São Paulo, Singapore, and Lisbon. She works one-on-one with students who want to engage with literature on their own terms, and she helps applicants find the voice that turns a college essay into a person.
I believe almost every student who has stopped enjoying reading has stopped because school made it feel like a test. My work is to help them remember what curiosity felt like and then to put words to that curiosity in writing that sounds like them. The grade follows from there. It always does.
