"For the last twenty-two years, I've dedicated myself to improving the writing skills of young people as a high school English teacher. As the leader of extracurricular activities, I’ve coached teams to championships in both football and Academic Decathlon. In 2011, with the help of my AP English students, I produced, wrote, and directed the film "Teacher of the Year," starring Keegan-Michael Key. It was previously available on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Paramount Plus, and now streams on Peacock. Drawing from over three decades of professional writing experience, I've also served as a mentor during the college application process, assisting students in crafting compelling college essays that have secured admissions to colleges such as Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Brown, Duke, UC Berkeley, and UCLA. Testimonials from some of my former students can attest to the impact of my guidance and are available on my LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-strouse-25bb4413/. We're all always trying to become better writers, just as we're always trying to become better people. Whatever guidance you or your child needs as a writer, I'm here to help." less...
