Bio

As one of Wyzant's highest-performing tutors, I successfully guide students toward writing that is clear, concise and polished by showing how to move drafts from being writer-based to reader-based. My students learn to analyze their strengths and weaknesses and move from idea generation to the final draft in a productive, strategic and rewarding process.

As one of Wyzant's highest-performing tutors, I successfully guide students toward writing that is clear, concise and polished by showing how to move drafts from being writer-based to reader-based. My students learn to analyze their strengths and weaknesses and move from idea generation to the final draft in a productive, strategic and rewarding process. By clarifying objectives, reviewing, editing and polishing, the student learns how to ensure their writing is interesting, valuable, graceful, and pleasurable for the reader.

My admission positions at two selective institutions and my experience as a college admission essay coach means I've been responding to high-level college application essays for over 20 years. With sessions devoted to choosing your best topic, style, and structure, and through targeted feedback with an appreciation for your unique personality and voice, you’ll find interesting connections that result in a meaningful essay that exceeds the reader's expectations and contributes to a more compelling and successful college application.

I take a holistic approach to enhance mastery of any writing. I create high-level writing lessons that boost reading, logic, and writing skills that strengthen the bridge between ideas and writing. I incorporate proofreading appointments, where I provide written actionable feedback, resulting in students feeling much more prepared and less stressed during the writing process.

With an MA in teaching academic writing and a BA in English, I inform each session with scholarship based on a multi-faceted educational pedagogy. I individualize each session, preparing custom documents and, afterwards, writing a detailed report on what we accomplished and the next steps. I create a shared google folder for each student, which serves as a rich resource of custom writing instruction and information.

I love teaching writing, along with the creative problem solving skills, like developing an idea and using logic, that help students express their ideas.

ACT English

My ACT English tutoring plan helps students develop a strong skill set to master the three parts of the English exam: Grammar, usage, and rhetoric, Reading, and Writing. I individualize the plan to meet each student’s goal for the ACT--whether it’s to improve grammar and usage, reading, writing, or all three. English Grammar and Usage: Students learn to quickly identify and correct errors in the grammar and usage conventions typically used on the exam. These conventions, which comprise 40 out of the 75 English questions, are: Punctuation: internal and end-of-sentence punctuation, with emphasis on the relationship of punctuation to meaning and avoiding ambiguity. Grammar and usage: agreement between subject & verb, pronoun & antecedent, and modifiers & the word modified; verbs and verbals; tense and aspect; and idiomatic usage Sentence Structures: compound and complex sentences, relationships between and among clauses, conjunctions, placement of modifiers, shifts in construction and focus, a Rhetoric: phrases, nominal structures, revising for clarity and conciseness Reading: Students learn ways to quickly analyze the four subject passages-- social studies, natural sciences, literature, and humanities— to identify the main idea, compare ideas, generalize ideas, identify relationships such as cause-and-effect, and define words based on context Writing: Students learn to use advanced rhetoric to write a unified, coherent essay that clearly states an insightful perspective on an issue and supports a nuanced, precise thesis. They learn to develop the significance of the issue in logical and organized paragraphs. Test-taking Strategies: Students learn to unpack each multiple-choice item and eliminate wrong answers. They learn to engage with the readings and pay close attention to questions. They learn strategies for when they are stuck on a question, word, or section of a passage. They learn the difference between reading, skimming, and scanning. And last, but certainly not least, they learn how to manage

I began my graduate studies in education with courses such as Reading and Learning Disabilities, Assessment and Diagnostic Teaching of Reading, Human Development and Reading, and Literacy for the Exceptional Child. As a high school English teacher, I was committed to improving the literacy challenges of my students who struggled with reading. While I’m a born reader, I wanted to understand how the brain learns to read and why decoding skills frustrated bright students. My strong background in graduate-level instruction in reading and my experience in teaching reading as a high school English teacher allow me to offer personalized reading instruction to any student. Whether my students are preparing for the ACT, SAT Reading exams or reading literature and poetry for high school or college assignments, they all enjoy gains in their reading comprehension and speed.

Nearly every year, my AP Lit & AP Lang students beat the national pass rates in AP English Exams by 48%. I've been specially trained to teach AP Lit and AP Lang courses as a high school English teacher, and as a tutor, I develop individual lessons for each student, helping them through their coursework and offering additional official AP materials to guide practice writing exercises. I provide valuable and actionable feedback that moves their writing from the high school level to the level that AP Lit & Lang essay assessors expect-- the college level. My work as a writing tutor at a major university involved being embedded into college courses, from all disciplines, to present writing-based lessons and work individually with students on all genres of writing. I take the same systematic, organized approach to my AP tutoring, creating a plan for each student to identify and strengthen their weaknesses in all phases of their writing, from idea generation to the final proofread and polish.

Linguistics,

Linguistics

My approach to tutoring English is based on the fundamentals of linguistics, the scientific study of language. I’ve done a great deal of linguistic research, as a graduate student and life-long linguistics fanatic, to understand the structural grammar, syntax, and diction underlying all versions of the English language. When working with college writers, ESL students, and students preparing for the AP Literature and AP Language exams, I start them thinking about word categories and sentence structures to help them objectively evaluate the English language, paying particular attention to how words change form and how they function in sentences.
Literature,

Literature

Nearly every year, my students beat the national pass rates in AP® English Literature by 48%. My experiences as both a high school AP Literature English teacher and a college-level tutor has equipped me with effective strategies that can help you develop the following skills with any work of prose or poetry: a more active and interrogative mode of reading, a higher-level response to the work, and an an interesting, complex claim that is defensible with evidence from the text. Our collaboration will also expand your ability to draw conclusions, synthesize ideas, and form an understanding of the work, including the genre and literary movement. With AP Lit, I work by teaching strategies for writing the FRQ responses such as literary argument, analysis & interpretation, and criticism. Together, we dig deeper so you can confidently comment on the eternal questions that literature asks us to grapple with.

My extensive college admission background at two selective institutions means I know what admissions committees are looking for in the admission essay. It has given me special insight to guide prospective students throughout the entire application process, from crafting successful admission and scholarship essays to assisting with supplementals, activities lists, and wait-list letters. My expertise in teaching writing means my students write thoughtful application essays by engaging each step of the writing process: understand the demands of the prompt, generate unique ideas at the prewriting stage, elaborate and revise the rough draft, and proofread the final copy. Throughout the process, my students eliminate predictable, cliché, (and maybe boring) ideas, spot weak rhetorical and organization choices and make appropriate ones, and correct grammar and other surface-level concerns. After working with me, students have developed a complex, meaningful, polished essay written in their own voice. The result is a more confident student and a more valuable personal essay that is immersive, thought-provoking, and natural-sounding to the admission reader.

Class Act Tutor

Marianne is truly a class act, and I have had a wonderful experience with her. I am a transfer student from a community college applying to prestigious colleges this year, so I was having a hard time finding an editor that understands the expectations and requirements for transfer students. Marianne is incredibly knowledgable about not just college admissions, but also what is needed to write amazing college essays. I worked with Marianne to brainstorm and compose all of my college essays, and Marianne assisted and mentored me so that my essays were not only amazing and interesting for the admissions reader, but also pieces of writing that I was genuinely proud of. Marianne is quite direct, but she is also receptive and understanding of the student’s needs, and does a great job of molding her teaching molds to the student. As of writing this review, I haven’t heard back yet from the colleges I have applied too, but I have high hopes about the decisions thanks to Marianne’s help, and I will also provide a follow-up to this review when I hear back from the colleges :).

Tutor responded:

Anastasia: As I mentioned at our very last session, our experience in collaborating on all of your Ivy League college application materials-- including Harvard and Stanford admission essays, activity lists, additional 100 character limit responses, etc., etc.-- was truly a journey that took us both to a new awareness and understanding of who you are, how you live your values, and what you’re going to contribute to the world. It was an honor to have been invited to go along on that journey with you. Your determination, work ethic, and creative spirit will continue to serve you well in creating a meaningful and beautiful life as you make your way in the world, which will be a better place as a result. --Marianne

Highly recommend Marianne

Marianne is amazing! She helped my son with his college admission essay and really understood who he is and was able to help him portray his true self in his essay. She gave him some much-needed hope and encouragement as he tries to get off the waitlist at his top-ranked college. It was beautiful and priceless to see the transformation in my son from desperation and sadness to hope and confidence in himself and his writing, even if our last-minute efforts do not result in an admission. She gave him something more than that; she saw him for who he is and understood him. My only regret is that we didn’t work with Marianne sooner in the admissions process. Highly recommend Marianne.

Knowledgeable coach, invaluable resource

Marianne is amazing. She is very knowledgeable about the whole college admission process and was able to provide extremely helpful insights into what colleges are looking for in the different types of essay prompts. My son loved working with her, she provided insights that helped guide his thought process making sure she did not influence his "voice" in the essay. He ended up with essays he was very happy with and proud of.
