Georgia Good is a graduate student at NYU, earning an MA in Environmental Conservation Education. As an NYU Steinhardt Scholar and Sustainability Leaders Fellow, she’s building a career in climate communication and engagement, and she is excited to tutor alongside her studies.
Georgia grew up in Cambridge, UK. She has a BA in English from University College London (UCL), where she achieved the top first-class degree in her graduating class, from one of the world’s top-ranked English departments. As a private tutor, she can support students with their own college applications, for both the UCAS and North American systems. A creative writer in her free time, she understands what stands out in an essay, and how to write clearly, powerfully and imaginatively.
Growing up in the British education system, Georgia was awarded A*s in all of her IGCSEs and A-Levels (English, History, and a Pre-U in Philosophy and Theology). She can work with students also taking (I)GCSEs, A-Levels and Pre-U exams, as well as those in the American system. She understands the pressures that many students face, and can help them improve their organizational skills to reduce stress and develop more efficient, manageable, and enjoyable ways of working.
Professionally, Georgia has worked in communications and engagement in the arts, education and increasingly in the environmental sector. As an undergraduate, she was Co-Editor of UCL’s prestigious arts journal, and has worked in communications and climate policy in the London art world and at the University of Cambridge. Most recently, she’s worked as a climate writer, editor and digital communicator for the international nonprofits Mercy Corps and Climate Arc.
Having worked collaboratively and supported others in many of these roles, Georgia is eager to help students improve their writing and editing skills. As a tutor, her focus is on writing coaching, essay coaching and reading comprehension support, for middle schoolers and high schoolers. Her subject focuses are English, history, geography and the study of religion. Though new to tutoring, she’s excited to work with students, and to approach these partnerships with empathy, positivity and a commitment to each student’s individual needs and goals.
In her free time, Georgia loves reading, writing, and finding ways to get outside and be in nature, even in New York – from kayaking on the Hudson River to birding in Prospect Park!
