Carol
Carol B. Reading, Writing, Literature, ESL, College Essay Prep
I received an email from a former student the other day in which he thanked me for encouraging him to return to college. Family hardship had forced him to drop out and take a job. Now he is back at school while working part-time. Since I began teaching in a high school in Oakland, California, I have taken a personal interest in my students.

I will design a special course tailored to each student, teaching you to write non-fiction books, self-help books & magazine... Read more
