"Hi! My name is Casey, and my passion is writing. I've been helping students with their writing since I was a teaching assistant for my English teacher in high school. In college, I was the Vice President and then President of the local chapter of the English Honors Society, Sigma Tau Delta. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in English Literature from CalPoly Pomona, where my specific fascinations were with rhetoric and disability studies.

One of my defining experiences as a tutor is working for the experimental Early Start Program at CalPoly Pomona. For several years, each summer I helped incoming freshmen who were struggling on their college English entrance exams. This program centered around gradually revising one single essay that was due at the end of the term. Through a mixture of group meetings and one-on-one attention, I saw these students improve their essays in ways that they wouldn't have in a regular class setting alone. I want to embody that same kind of patient, collaborative environment in my tutoring here at Wyzant.

After all, writing is a collaborative process, so I want students to be comfortable in their tutoring environment. At the moment I can only do online tutoring, but I can meet on video or on text, depending on the needs of the student. Contact me to schedule a meeting or if you just have questions for me. I'm usually on my computer or phone, so I'll get back to you as quickly as possible." less...
