With six years of tutoring experience under my belt - I'm looking to grow my English tutoring business. I specialize in essays and research papers, but am excited and very able to enhance students' (from elementary to undergraduate) understanding of the writing process as a whole. During these private English lessons, I teach my students to weave the fabric of their voices into "academic" language in order to create cohesive, effective arguments. I am whole-heartedly committed to open-discussion tutoring, in which students can hone in on the passion and analytical thinking that are required for good, thoughtful writing. Success as a tutor is defined by the progress of his/her student, not due to the student receiving an A+ on one single essay. By hiring me for your student, I promise to utilize several strategies to help his/her writing in terms of crafting a better thesis, using transitions appropriately, creating a fluid structure, etc. I hope that my students will realize the significance of writing effective papers, and gain the confidence that is needed to convey a compelling argument. Their understanding of these writing aspects is the scale with which I will measure my own improvement as a tutor.
