ライティング指導と採点（IEW） - 個人指導

UPDATE FOR SUMMER 2025: It's been three years since I made that video in fall of 2022!  I graduate in May 2025 and will take the bar exam in July 2025.

I really like teaching here, and I will be back in August /fall 2025 for a bit.  I am working on getting the Fix It grammar classes on the calendar for fall 2025.   However, I know many of my people will have found new writing teachers, and I won't do much, if anything, in spring 2026.   I hope to plan some kind of government/history/civics class here eventually, so check back every once in a while.  

I do still get messages, and I will check them at least once a week. Students can't message me if they are not in an active class, but parents will still be able to message me if you have questions about writing.

I help children overcome their fear of failure, and I coach strong writers to continued excellence.  Once children grasp specific writing concepts, they can apply their skills to all content areas.  Mostly, I use the writing methods taught by the Institute for Excellence in Writing. 

My youngest daughter is dyslexic and in my search to help her organize and communicate her thoughts, I discovered the writing methods of IEW.   Over the last 17 years, I have studied and taught these writing methods at my kitchen table, in homeschool co-ops, and in private tutoring.  Most recently, I taught IEW for seven years to middle schoolers at a public charter school in Southern California.  I am currently a Registered Instructor with IEW. 

I graduated from the University of Maryland with an Elementary Education degree, but I've learned  way more from my own kids and hundreds of others than I ever learned in a college classroom. 

Having taught on two coasts, in public, private, charter, and homeschool co-ops, I have a breadth of experience.  

My classes are "pretty fun for a writing class," my students report, but they don't feel like recess. Students will practice significant writing, grammar, organizing, outlining, and speaking skills in my classes.  If your child needs support, recovery, or challenge, check out my classes.
