Hi! I’m Heidi. I graduated from Southern Virginia University with a degree in Business, and I’ve spent the past three years tutoring at our university’s Writing Center, where I served as both head tutor and center manager. I’m a certified tutor with years of hands-on experience and formal training in helping students grow into confident writers.

While I absolutely offer copy editing and can help fine-tune grammar, punctuation, and formatting, I believe the most valuable tutoring happens in a collaborative environment. I love having real conversations about writing—what’s working, what’s not, and how we can build stronger ideas together. My goal is to help you better understand your own process and feel more confident expressing yourself on the page.

I work with all types of writing, from academic essays and résumés to creative pieces, personal statements, and even poetry. Whether you’re staring at a blank page or polishing a final draft, I’m here to support your growth and make writing feel a little less overwhelming.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful, approachable, and collaborative tutor, I’d love to work with you! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a session.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business from Southern Virginia University, where I worked for over three years as a certified writing tutor in the university’s Writing Center. During that time, I served as head tutor and center manager, overseeing tutoring operations and training new staff. I’ve worked with hundreds of students on academic essays across a variety of disciplines, offering support with thesis development, organization, clarity, and revision. My experience has equipped me to help writers at all levels improve not just their papers, but their overall writing confidence and skills.

As a writing tutor and head tutor at the writing center, I received specialized training in fiction writing and regularly reviewed numerous fiction essays. My experience helping students shape their narratives gave me a strong understanding of storytelling elements like plot, character development, and descriptive language. I enjoy fostering a collaborative environment where writers can explore creative ideas and improve their craft through open discussion and thoughtful feedback.

While working at the writing center, we received specific training in presenting. I have met with numerous students and have done this for over 3 years.
Thesis Writing

Thesis Writing

With extensive experience as a writing tutor and head tutor, I have worked closely with students on crafting clear, focused thesis statements and organizing their academic essays effectively. Additionally, as a teacher’s assistant, I graded numerous college-level papers, which deepened my understanding of what makes a strong thesis and coherent argument. My role involved guiding students through the research and writing process, helping them develop strong arguments supported by evidence, and refining their academic voice. I am skilled at breaking down complex writing tasks and supporting writers in producing well-structured, polished theses that meet academic standards.
