"Does this sound familiar? Whenever I excelled in a subject, it was because the teacher loved what they were teaching and loved helping students learn. That’s what I offer.

I love to help people of all ages and skill levels start right where they and build in their strengths. If you’ve felt intimidated or have struggled to keep up, I am here for you! If you are ready to soar beyond those around you, let’s do it!

My top expert areas are in writing of all kinds and in beginning to intermediate German (more about that later). I’ve been a successful real-world writer and editor for large and small businesses, for the web and digital marketing, for magazines and newspapers, for nonprofits and higher education, and for government agencies. And in every job, I’ve created more great writers around me, by sharing how to do it and by giving helpful feedback on each piece of work.

My schooling includes a bachelor’s degree in German and a master’s degree in Communications (both with honors). Every single class, whether it was about writing or not, made me a better writer in some way. I can help you learn better writing in any area of study!

As a tutor I work with you on the material you need to focus on - bring your current lessons and assignments, bring your past work that shows where we need to focus, or bring your future learning goals and we’ll map out a path and get there step by step.

My tutoring experience: I’ve helped students succeed as a tutor in English as a Second Language, as a German teacher at the elementary, as a reading tutor for elementary students, as a German teacher for a weekend German program, and as a college-level teaching assistant. I have helped hundreds of people become better writers through workplace coaching. Whether you need to move from beginner to basi, basic to good, or good to great — let’s get started!

I respond very quickly to messages. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a free 15-minute session to meet and see if the fit feels positive." less...
