About
I am an award-winning former magazine editor and current journalist who has experience tutoring students with ADHD and with helping to craft college essays. I am patient, student-focused and hopeful that anyone I work with can find a method that makes writing less laborious and more rewarding.
I enjoy seeing people reach the end of a project knowing it taught them to struggle less with future assignments.
I taught my son who has learning differences and have mentored/edited a dozen or more young journalists.
My work as a journalist for Forbes, Glamour, The New York Times, The Boston Globe and a book of essays about children with learning differences has made me a passionate, inclusive writer who does not waste time or energy on subjects that are not interesting to readers. I know how to take even boring topics and find a point of entry or interest with students.

I like to meet, learn the goals of the student and set a time frame for a helping them. My method is simple. I teach sentence structure, tips for smart research and a method for organizing a topic and formulating an outline so that the piece will nearly write itself. You can do this!
I am new to formal tutoring, having been a mentor for years.
Be prepared to let go of what people say you must doand learn how you do your best work.
I helped to edit several cover letters and assist students just out of college to cradt their pitch to future employers with confudence.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Think about why you are stuck. When you lack clarity about an assignment, don't be shy. Carefully review the assignment and highlight parts you don't understand to review with your teacher.
