Experience
I specialize as an editor and tutor for writing. ~ ~ ~ As an editor: Whatever you give me to edit, I can get it done EFFECTIVELY and QUICKLY, including last-minute requests. I am regularly up until 2 am ET. With enough notice, I can stay up later than that to expect your last-minute academic paper, cover letter, or application essay so you can hand in your edited work with confidence. Let's get you that A, interview, or acceptance letter! ~ ~ ~ I used to tutor in English and math, but I'm focusing on just these for now: SAT Writing PSAT Writing English language Writing and grammar at any level I do NOT tutor in these subjects: Literature Reading comprehension ~ ~ ~ Why me? I'm the rare tutor or editor who can not only make sure your writing is free of errors but also teach you how to write better. I've been an educator for 11 years and have proven methods for success. I used to be an ESL student for years. I understand the complexities of English and sometimes I can predict what you're misunderstanding. I'm observant and will respect your writing style and level of formality. I will not edit your writing so heavily that it becomes obvious it's not your work. With my creative writing background, I can help you come up with ideas for creative punches in your work so your writing stands out above the rest! ~ ~ ~ Background, Awards, and Achievements: Formal training as a Communication major Selected as one of four out of 400 students to read a short memoir at the Coffeehouse Reading (for my freshman year writing class at Boston University) Outstanding Achievement (for a high school Creative Writing class) Best Scriptwriting (for a high school video production class) 730 on SAT Writing multiple choice (this was in 2004; I will retake it as a practice exam soon)
