Over time, I came to deeply understand the transformative power of code and ... Read more

Patient and Effective NYU Student Specializing in Humanities
I am a freshman at NYU majoring in history. In high school I spent two years as a writing tutor, selected by the Humanities faculty to help other students to write, edit, and proofread their essays. I also was an editor of three high school publications, where I also worked with writers to help improve their work. I found it incredibly rewarding helping people articulate their ideas in writing as effectively and eloquently as possible. As a history major, I'm also very familiar with the proce... Read more
Mike
College Instructor for Writing, Reading and Test-Taking
I’ve met students who thought they were terrible writers and students who thought they were excellent writers, but I’ve always been surprised that all students, regardless of confidence, think they can become “better†writers simply by learning more adjectives or writing longer sentences.

Instead, writers are trying to make documents that create and... Read more

Author with a BA, MS in English and passion for education
I'd love to inspire others through my passion for English, books, writing, and education.

As an honors math teacher at Success Academy, I was able to show my seventh graders that Math is a relevant skill that helps solve real problems. I was able to surprise my student... Read more
