About
I’m a full-time high school teacher and adjunct college professor who has been helping high school students get admitted to colleges for over a decade! As a certified English teacher with a Master’s degree in linguistics, I use my professional expertise to help college-bound students plan, edit, and refine their college admissions essays. (Please note that due to academic honesty policies, I cannot write your essay for you, but I’m happy to help draft and edit it!) Whether you’d just like one virtual session for some final edits, or you’re looking for a series of sessions where we can start from scratch, feel free to reach out and we can develop a plan that works for you! My passion is helping high school students create effective pieces of writing that they can be proud of.

LinguaZoom was such a blessing! My son who is a sophomore in High School was struggling with Spanish 2. Mr. Storrs helped my son pass his summer school class and gave him the confidence he needed in order to get through the class. He is very knowledgeable, patient, kind, and flexible. Without LinguaZoom my son would not have passed his summer school class. I highly recommend LinguaZoom to any student struggling with Spanish.

Working with Keegan was a pleasure. He was very welcoming and flexible which allowed for a comfortable environment. The time spent planning activities and working with my reflected his outstanding work effort. He was always available for questions or help. The answers to these questions were always thorough and easy to understand. This made it easy to master various concepts before going on to learn more complex material. Not on is Keegan a fantastic person but his passion for teaching is immeasurable. He listened and adapted to the challenges that I faced during my Spanish journey. It was clear how Keegan valued learning as he made it very easy to ask any questions or struggles that I encountered. Through his teaching, I have improved my Spanish far past my own expectations. During the time that Keegan was teaching me, I had the opportunity to visit Spain. I had worried about talking to native speakers but with Keegan’s help, I was able to successfully communicate with Spaniards with no problem at all. Keegan prepared me with a level of cultural understanding and proficiency in Spanish. This proficiency allowed me to consume various media outlets of Spanish like television shows, movies, and videos. After working with Keegan I felt fully prepared for college level Spanish courses and I even tested out of some. I am grateful for the way Keegan has taught me. In fact, his teaching has inspired me to pursue a teaching licensure to have an impact people the way he has impacted me.

He is incredibly knowledgeable about languages, how best to help kids learn a language, and how to motivate them to want to succeed. He helped my son learn to love Spanish and enjoy the intricacies of language. He is extremely professional and very good at connecting with his students. He will work different angles until he finds the best way to help each individual student based on their interests and abilities. I highly recommend - parents will be very pleased at the progress their child will make! Absolutely wonderful teacher!
