I'm an experienced writing tutor with a strong background in literature, writing, and editing. I earned a degree in English Literature from Duke University and a Master's Degree in Creative Writing from the University of Miami, and for the last two years I have been tutoring undergraduate and graduate students at the CU Denver Writing Center, demystifying the art and science of good writing.
I believe there is no such thing as a "bad writer" -- writing is not an inborn skill. There is only a writer who hasn't yet learned the process behind good writing: There are specific steps that guide the production of a clear, well-organized, compelling piece of text, and anyone can learn them. I break down that production into manageable pieces in order to alleviate writing anxiety and enable students to approach their writing with the confidence and expertise required to succeed.
