Experience
One thing that inspired me to become a tutor is seeing children of all ages struggle to have their ideas and thoughts realized simply because they do not know how to put them on paper. Teachers need to give writing students detailed and continuous feedback. Most teachers have over one hundred pupils to keep track of and sometimes they can slip through the cracks. This is where I come in. I work with your child closely to develop their writing skills. I believe in giving constructive feedback and spending enough time with each person. As far as my academic and professional background, I have my Master's in Applied Behavioral Sciences, with emphasis on systems counseling. I also have my Bachelor of German. I have an extensive background in writing and have been working as a technical writer for ten years. I have also written many post-graduate papers on psychology and counseling. I will happily help you, whether you need help with a research paper, literary analysis, or essay for college entrance. I am looking forward to helping pupils hone in on their writing skills and gain a voice they have been struggling to develop.
