She helped my writing meet both technical expectations (grammar, spelling, APA formatting, paragraph structure, etc), and analytical expectations. Her recommendations will help your writing meet the standards of both competitive academia and anything else that comes your way. She is responsive, getting back to me within a few hours each time. She is also flexible when it comes to meeting times and locations.

7 Writing lessons

Luke was tremendously effective. My daughter mostly wanted help preparing for the writing portions of the exam. Luke read her practice essays and showed her specifically how to improve her theses and the choice and organization of the material that she included. He also showed her strategies for writing answers to essays questions where she only had partial knowledge of the relevant material.

And she is already gaining confidence and learning how to effectively outline and discover her own writing voice. We are very fortunate to have found Phoebe!
