My Approach

Many people think writing is a natural-born talent. But much like drawing and singing, writing is actually a skill that can be learned, honed and mastered.

For students, improving your writing means becoming more adept at a broad range of academic disciplines. From developing and supporting a scientific claim in AP Biology to applying for an on-campus organization or summer internship, clear and persuasive writing is essential.

I work with students to give them the skills they need to be successful in all stages of writing.

Before getting started, are you taking the time to organize your thoughts? Have you clearly identified your main theme and formulated a topic sentence? What are your supporting pieces of evidence?

Once you’ve finished, how do you go back and fine tune your writing? Where should you add more detail, and where should you cut back? Is your tense consistent throughout? Do you have a variety of sentence structures and powerful, carefully selected language?

Working with students is my passion. I thrive on giving you the tools you need to become proficient and confident writers.
