Writing/SAT Tutoring from an Anthologized Essayist

Are you (or is your child) addled by admissions essays, confounded by cover letters, troubled by term papers, or stumped by the SATs? Is your grammar garbled or your vocabulary vexed? Learn to make your writing say what you want it to say, without these common issues getting in the way. I offer personalized, one-on-one advice for students and professionals who want to develop writing that is clear and dynamic. I can also coach on how to tackle the SAT Critical Reading and Writing sections.

I'll help you gain valuable skills you can use in any text: how to grab the reader's attention; how to convey complex ideas; how to integrate personal narrative with academic or professional information; how to avoid grammar pitfalls and how to use appropriate style; when to enrich your vocabulary and sentence structure, and when to keep it simple. Plus, you'll develop reading and editing abilities you can employ for the rest of your academic or professional career.

I'm a twenty-eight-year-old professional writer, researcher, essayist and NYU graduate. My work has been published in the Best American Travel Writing Series, The Believer, n+1, and Vice Magazine.

Classes can be held at your home, office, or another location of your choosing.
