Anjalee B.

8 Writing lessons

We hardly noticed when the time was up, and she gave me a list of things that we had come up with, so that I could finish it up and turn it in. I got 100% and feel a lot more confident with descriptive writing. This was all done online, which was very helpful as I go between houses. She stayed patient no matter how frustrated I was, and was very relatable.
Heidi H.

69 Writing lessons

Diane has been significantly helpful while I have been writing my statements of purpose. She gives fantastic constructive criticism and is easy to understand when she suggests structural adjustments to my papers. My statements are now much easier to read and have really solid content and structure (along with good grammar). I have had at least 4 tutors before Diane, and she is, by far, my favorite.
Nathalie D.

64 Writing lessons

Larry lives 40 minutes from our house but it was well worth the drive. He was also incredibly flexible and, whenever possible, tried to fit in extra times if needed, before an upcoming test. This showed how much he cared. It was this combination of caring and ability that translated in my son'e successful grades. Larry is also one of the kindest people you will ever meet. We are extremely grateful to him which is why I am writing this review.
