K W.

21 Writing lessons

My son had two writing challenges - writing neatly and writing more than the bare minimum. If I said to him, "You will spend a full hour writing," he would probably have collapsed in mental agony at the thought. But then Michelle came to our house. My son has enjoyed every one of his 8 lessons with her, despite writing for almost the entire hour straight each time.
Carol J.

13 Writing lessons

I believe she is motivated to so out of her passion for writing and teaching. As a result, the outcome is very encouraging - I was immensely proud when comparing the essay I wrote at session zero side by side with the one I wrote after session six. It was a huge difference! Thanks for your attention. This is the longest review I’ve ever posted, which probably demonstrates that I don’t hate writing as much anymore.
Donna W.

19 Writing lessons

She will check his reading comprehension, improve his writing structures to be more concise and ask him questions if the sentences are not clear as they both edit and revise together. After 1 month, he has improved his writing from about 6 sentences to 1 to 1.5 page length with a good flow and he is becoming less reliant on Laurie. Laurie will continue to work with Ivan in his writing for higher writing level. Laurie is a highly experienced tutor and I would recommend anyone to her.
