Experience
I have previously tutored university level students in writing, essay crafting and expository writing. I have also tutored students ages 5 and up for a variety of different programs, including several created under the No Child Left Behind Act. I am a mom! I have a son who is 15. So, I am familiar with a wide range of educational projects and student needs. I consider myself highly skilled at helping young writers get excited about story telling and writing. I enjoy helping fledgling "writers" strengthen their essays and writing projects. I have a natural flare for helping students narrow their focus, build a solid scaffolding for producing A-grade papers and academic essays and can offer tricks and shortcuts for getting papers done more quickly with much less stress. I have more than 10 years of editing and freelance writing experience and 12 years experience as a print journalist. I have won two awards for my journalistic writing and worked on staff at several Los Angeles-based print outlets.
