Bio

Greetings students and parents! If you are looking for a tutor who has taught all ages, from elementary students to management at Hyundai Oilbank in Korea, then you have come to the right place! I am able to make learning enjoyable by focusing on students' interests, and offering explanations of concepts at many increasing levels of difficulty or simplicity until the student achieves full understanding of the topic.

Greetings students and parents! If you are looking for a tutor who has taught all ages, from elementary students to management at Hyundai Oilbank in Korea, then you have come to the right place! I am able to make learning enjoyable by focusing on students' interests, and offering explanations of concepts at many increasing levels of difficulty or simplicity until the student achieves full understanding of the topic.

Let me tell you a bit about my educational background and work experience. I took all honors courses in high school for English, science, and math as well as including AP Biology and AP History. After graduation, I attended Phoenix College on scholarship and graduated with an honors degree in Classical Studies. From there, I went on to earn a Bachelor of Science from Arizona State University in Psychology. While abroad, I finished my Master's degree in Organizational Psychology with a 4.0 GPA. I am currently a PhD candidate at the Lancaster University Management School in England, which was just awarded 'Business School of the Year' for 2012 from the Times Higher Education awards (similar to America's Newsweek rankings), and is consistently in the top 5 business schools in the UK.

After that, I moved to Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, where I taught in their ESL program which was ranked #2 in Korea at the time. Then I moved to China, where I taught a combination of ESL and ESP (English for Specific Purposes) in Biology and Business to university students who were in a 1+3 program to study abroad in the UK or Australia (one year in China and three years abroad). I moved back to Korea once more, where I taught as an English lecturer for four years at Cheongju University. During the summer and winter breaks I also taught ESL in the children's programs offered at the university. My last year teaching abroad was in the Middle East, where I tau

Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I've published 16 novels across science fiction, fantasy, and romance, and I've taught creative writing through Romance Writers of America chapters and community college programs. I specialize in helping writers develop their craft at every stage — from worldbuilding and plot structure to dialogue, pacing, and revision. Whether you're working on your first short story or polishing a novel manuscript, I can help you get unstuck and level up.

I taught college English in South Korea for five years in South Korea at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies and Cheongju University, including General English, Advanced English, Public Speaking, Writing, Discussion, and Adult Conversation. I taught English in a university program for NCUK in China for one year, subjects included English for Academic Purposes, English for Specific Purposes (Business, Chemistry, and Biology), Research Writing, Advanced English, and Remedial English. Before my university teaching, I taught Literature, Grammar, Conversation, Comprehension and Phonics to children ages 8-18 in South Korea for three years at Youngdo English School.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I taught English at the university level in South Korea and China for six years, including credit courses, AP English, and English for Academic Purposes at institutions like Cheongju University and Hankuk University of Foreign Studies. I specifically taught academic essay writing in Korea and China for advanced as well as remedial students. I have also tutored many ESL students both abroad and at home through government grant programs at my local school for GED students and privately for accelerated students at BASIS.

I have published 16 novels in science fiction and fantasy and have been writing fiction seriously for over 15 years. I've taught creative writing through Romance Writers of America chapters and community college programs, and mentored emerging authors through professional writing organizations.

I help writers at all levels develop their voice and build the craft skills to finish and publish their work.
