I have been teaching writing at the college and high school level for over two and a half decades both in California and Saudi Arabia (where I lived for almost 20 years). In Saudi Arabia, I taught at King Abdul Aziz University and later, at a private multilingual school (Arabic, French, and English) for international students. My career has been firmly rooted in writing and teaching writing/composition/critical thinking.
I speak elementary Arabic and fluent French (The Alliance Française, mention très honorable = summa cum laude, followed by a Bachelor of French). Let me help you excel in French. Alors, si vous avez besoin d'un tuteur pour les études françaises, je suis parfaitement capable de vous aider.) French language students are very welcome.
I have a Master's in English from San Diego State University, have taught at Cosumnes River College in Sacramento, CA, and now at Fresno City College in California. As a Writing and Reading Center supervisor, I lead scholarship essay workshops. One of my mentored students recently won $3,500.00 in scholarships after going through a brainstorming/rough draft/feedback process with me. Let me help you with the same! I will offer you encouragement, which can make a world of difference in the degree of self-esteem and achievement of learners. My students have gone on to publish articles and books, win awards, and attain master's degrees.
I welcome ESL students and writers at every level. My experience tutoring and teaching in Saudi Arabia and Switzerland gives me a special understanding of the challenges faced by multilingual students. I have decades of experience teaching college and high school composition as well as tutoring students with all types of writing assignments in every course that requires essays, from Applied Technology and Allied Health to Child Development and Criminology. I can help you with grammar, punctuation, APA, MLA, and other formats.
