Trevor C. from New York, NY
As a student in Creative Writing at Columbia University in the City of New York, I am surrounded by quality resources and highly effective writing tutors. Of these, Sean struck me, from his first comments regarding diction, as an excellent option when I need assistance and his flexibility allowed for us to meet on short notice, making him the perfect choice for an urgent assignment. He respectfully guided me to a greater understanding of how a reader will perceive my structures and educated me on the subtle nuances that turn great writing into truly exceptional writing. He was courteous and mindful of my personal style in all of our interactions and seeks to partner with, rather than control, those he helps. I recommend him as a superior editor in the Northeast for anything writing-related.

The lesson with Sean was very helpful. As an international student, I have some difficulties with grammar and spelling, and Sean helped me in these two fields. Sean helped me in editing my papers and taught me useful skills for my future writing assignments. I truly recommend this excellent teacher, especially for international students.
