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.

Saba G.

15 Writing lessons

She taught me how to approach writing as a step-by-step process instead of trying to write everything at once. We also worked on paraphrasing, grammar, sentence structure, BLUF writing, brainstorming, and responsible AI use. One thing I especially appreciated was that she didn't just correct my work, she taught me how to think about writing and reading. Because of that, I became much more confident tackling difficult texts and organizing my ideas before I started writing.

DIVYA A.

146 Writing lessons

Her extensive knowledge of English and writing practices is evident, and she has a remarkable ability to make complex concepts easy to understand for my daughter. Whether you're looking to improve your essay writing or explore creative writing projects, she is the perfect guide. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking to elevate their writing skills with a tutor who is both inspiring and supportive.
