John
Duke Grad Specializing in Writing, Math, and Study Skills
Hey there. My name is John, and I am a teacher, tutor, and academic coach. Through my experiences as an educator, I've recognized that many students are not being taught the fundamentals of learning.

Both options often focus on memorization over understanding, testing over critical thinking, and passing over growing, problem-solving, and living to one's full potential. Based on these observations,... Read more

Find your voice & purpose and write well!

Being able to express yourself in words is a great joy – not to mention how this skill helps you: persuade others, succeed in English at school, write a resume and cover letter for a job, apply for funding, accompany your music, tell your story, illicit emotion, sell a product, and generally speaking, just get attention, and who among us does not want attention! We all want our words to fly like a bee straight to the flower. I’d love to help you with your... Read more

ESL can be fun!
Back in 1977 I got my undergraduate degree in Spanish...(But) since then, I have fallen in love with reading English---be it poetry, representational fiction, biography, philosophy, you name it; but most of all the short story-novel media.

My interest, activity was not academic in nature, but escapist. I am also somewhat of an amateur poet and story wr... Read more
