"I'm a terrible writer."
"I can't seem to get what's in my head onto paper."
"I've always hated to write."
I hear these phrases often at first tutoring sessions.
Things get much more positive after that!
Putting thoughts into words isn't always easy, even for a published writer. But like anything else, guidance, practice and encouragement make all the difference.
As a professional educator and writer constantly honing my craft, I know firsthand the thought processes (and roadblocks) involved in writing. I especially enjoy working with young people, but I've helped those of all ages to write better.
Examples of writing help I provide:
* Basic writing skill development
* Writing mechanics: grammar, punctuation, style
* Guidance on school assignments
* Resumes and college essay development & editing
* Improved standardized test writing
* Increased writing confidence
* Better business writing
