"Greetings,

I specialize in editing essays and personal statements for college, graduate school,and professional school applications, but I also edit résumés, CVs, and cover letters and longer documents such as Master's theses and Ph.D. dissertations.

In addition to correcting any spelling, punctuation, or grammar errors in your document, I will suggest precise revisions of vague or awkward passages.

I offer tutoring to college students and adults in the subjects of Writing, Literature, and German. After your first 3 lessons, my rate goes down to $30 per hour.

1. WRITING. I can help you improve your academic writing if you are enrolled in an undergraduate writing or composition course.

2. LITERATURE. I can help you analyze a work of literature or understand a work of literary criticism. As an assistant professor, I specialized in the medieval literature of England, France, Germany, and Iceland.

3. GERMAN. I teach Beginning German as well as German Translation for Academic Research.

Whatever your goals, it will be my goal to provide you with a relaxed and supportive learning environment.

I studied German at U.C. Berkeley, Cornell University, and the University of Göttingen, and I was an assistant professor of English for 9 years at the University of Michigan and Union College. I have been a freelance editor and tutor since 2014. Contact me today to schedule a free consultation." less...
