This class is taught in English.

Students will improve their writing skills through private tutoring. They will receive personalized guidance with regards to technical skills like grammar and assistance with regards to the wider writing process. Beyond this, learning goals will vary from student to student dependent upon what is needed!

I am well-versed in a variety of different kinds of writing, both academic and creative. 

With regards to academic writing, my Bachelor's Degree in History and my Master's Degree in Theology were both writing intensive areas of study, requiring researching, revision, brainstorming, refining grammar, style, and structure, and repeatedly going through the many stages of the writing process. I also completed a nearly 100 page honors thesis as a part of this course of study, honing these skills yet further. 

With regards to creative writing, my experience is more self-taught, through careful study of literature through the years alongside my own personal creative writing projects. I have successfully taught group-based creative writing courses here on Outschool as well! Here it is more a matter of passion for the discipline!

Homework Offered
Students will typically spend some time writing outside of class, but this will vary from student to student and session to session. If a student is seeking help on an essay, they will need to work on that essay, sometimes writing new material and sometimes applying revisions to their work. If a student is seeking support in creative writing, they should have new work to share at the start of a new session so we can discuss and improve their work! I can provide more specific exercises and assignments depending on student needs upon request.
