PLEASE NOTE: I only schedule writing tutoring by request so please contact me to help with scheduling. This is an ongoing tutoring session where we can work on paragraph or essay writing skills. Parents will need to contact me once a session has been booked to let me know what they would like for me to work on with their student. I use a particular writing method called the 4 Square Writing Method which is essentially a tool to help organize ideas that will be used to write solid paragraphs or 3 paragraph essays. I can cover any writing genre (narrative, informative, expository, opinion, creative, compare and contrast, etc). We can also work on creative writing topics. Class is held via discussion of topic, modeling, and independent practice. Independent weekly writing assignments are a must to practice what we learn in our sessions together. Learning is measured by the completion of the piece of writing we worked on and independent practice. I provide written feedback on all work the student turn in. Ongoing sections run from January to May, June to August, and September to December.
