I know firsthand the frustrations many learners feel when they are assigned to write an essay. Trust me, I WILL make the process fun and painless. For over 20 years I have been teaching the writing process and have helped our school's writing scores become the best in our state. With the tools I will give the learner, he or she will become more confident and less frustrated in the writing process! If a learner is already working on an essay, I will help them with the process. If the learner just wants to gain a better understanding of how to write essays, I will give that instruction as well. *𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙂𝙤𝙤𝙜𝙡𝙚 𝘿𝙤𝙘𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙮 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙗𝙚𝙩𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙢𝙮𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 :) 𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐞 1.

Learning my standard process for writing essays will truly help and take the stress out of writing.

I have been teaching literature and writing to teens for over 25 years. I hold Bachelor’s Degrees in English, Writing, and Secondary Education, as well as a current teaching license. In 2005, I earned a Master’s Degree in Education and continue to take professional development courses annually to refine my teaching practices and stay current with educational trends and new teaching methods. Alongside my work with pre-teens and teens, I am also an English professor at the university level, where I teach writing and literature courses.
During my 21 years as a high school English teacher, I was proud to help our sophomore students consistently achieve the highest reading and writing scores in the state. My teaching approach focuses on building a strong foundation by breaking the writing process into small, manageable steps. I am super patient and encouraging with my feedback and guidance, ensuring students feel supported and confident as they grow in their writing abilities.
My courses are designed to accommodate all types of learners and abilities, providing a supportive environment where every learner can thrive!
