In this class, I will be working one of one with students to cover the different essay types that students will come across in writing. We will cover narrative, persuasive, and opinion essays. As well as what might be expected off essays on state testing or in school. For narrative essays, we will cover the steps that are included in a plot including the exposition, rising action, climax, and falling action. We will also cover how to create characters, settings, problems and solutions, and lessons. For persuasive essays, we will cover the structure of a persuasive essay, rebuttals, and how to use evidence in an essay. For opinion essays we will go over structure, and what is important to put in an opinion essay. There will also be time to address students' specific needs for essays for their schooling or tests that they are taking.

Hello, I’m Angela AKA The Truthful Tutor. I have been a tutor for the last 12 years.
I love my job and love working with all the students that I have come across. My passion in life is making sure that students have the tools that they need to succeed and learn everything they can.
Since being a tutor, I have learned many tips and tricks and want to make sure that those tools can get into the hands of students through tutoring, so they can tap into their potential.
The most important thing that I have learned is that success begins early. The earlier that students are given the tools they need to succeed the better that they will do.
I have lots of experience with students with a number of different abilities and neurodiverse students. I have experience with blind students, autistic students, students with ADHD, etc. If your student needs any accommodations to make this class more accessible for them please feel free to reach out and I will make these accommodations to the best of my ability.
