This is private tutoring for building skill in writing. Writing is about putting ideas down on paper in a way that makes sense to the reader. Students must explore ideas, articulate them verbally, and then practice writing them down in order to more fully develop skill in this area. It's more than spelling and grammar. This is designed to give students a safe place to explore ideas, practice writing, build skills, and get answers in a non-threatening venue. Students may also bring writing projects from other classes for help and support. Students will build confidence and work towards mastery of both academic and creative writing.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of writing, apply that to their school homework, and work toward mastery.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a California credentialed teacher, with an extensive background in teaching reading and writing to kids who struggle. I know that students fear writing because there is too much focus on spelling and grammar and not enough on ideas and communication. I take away that stress to allow students to shine. This is more inspiring for them, and builds their confidence and abilities faster.Reviews
