Anthony
Writing/English/Reading Tutor
I am a writing tutor with more than 20 years of professional experience as a journalist and speech writer. I possess outstanding skills as a writer, editor and public speaking coach. I believe the basis of good writing is clear thinking. As a tutor, I like to start with a discussion of the subject matter to clarify and crystallize the important points the writer is trying to make and then move on to getting those thoughts and points written in an organized, cogent manner.

I've always enjoyed one-on-one work with students, since this best allows me to pinpoint and address the student's areas of confusion. Every learner is different and I believe it's important for tutors to identify and adapt to the learning styles of their students. I aim to be flexible and creative; since we live in a physical world, I like to use familiar phenomena as examples to discuss physics and astronomy concepts. I have 13 years of experience teaching in both formal and informal e... Read more

Initially, languages did not come easily to me. My first year of middle-school Spanish, I was boggled by the idea that verbs conjugated and, once I started studying Latin, that nouns declined.

Greetings! There are two simple secrets to writing well - solid organization and clarity. Organization develops clear thoughts; clear wording prevents redundancy and over-writing. But I also believe this process must be guided by an individual's personal learning style. Together we can find your natural study rhythm and develop strong writing skills. I hold a master's degree and candidacy in cultural anthropology from the University of Michigan and have spent 8 years as a freelance writer. D... Read more
