My instruction is not so much about “creative writing” as it is about taking a rough draft through its necessary revisions by working from no-nonsense, traditional principles by which we can p...

Experienced Writing Tutor, with ESL student background

I worked for 1 year at a university writing center, averaging 8 hours per week of tutoring. My tutoring style is above all conversational: getting to hear directly from a student about where they are and how I can help them. This style involves moving beyond grammar to improving the clarity of a student's writing, strength of an argument, and building greater comprehension. Additionally, I have established relationships with several international students, for whom English is not their fi... Read more
