3 essay lessons

Dana helped me perfect an essay I was preparing for a graduate school application. She was extremely generous with her time and suggestions, and was a huge help in getting my essay where I wanted it to be. She was so easy to talk to, and I felt very comfortable working with her. She guided me to focus in on the message I was working to convey in my essay. Thank you so much, Dana! I will definitely contact you again to assist with future writing! :)
Vanessa F.

1 essay lesson

I contacted him again on WyzAnt! I explained to him the case we need to write. I told him that I would write down all the bulleted list and send to him to check before I start to write the whole essay. However, he refused to give me any ideas or discuss the essay together. He said to me that he would only read and edit the essay after I finish. He keeps saying that this is ILLEGAL and UNETHICAL! But I told him that my school writing center tutors also do the same thing.
