I work primarily with mid-career professionals for whom English is a second language to improve their writing and speaking skills. My focus is on teaching fundamental language and analytic skills to help students excel on SAT/ACT/GRE exams. I specialize in one-to-one learning to help students improve their intellectual abilities, self confidence, and individual creativity and style.
I also specialize in writing, mainly non-fiction, and all aspects of the English language: comprehension, style, English as a second language, and the many peculiarities of English grammar. English is my lifelong passion; teaching it perfectly complements my other day job as a writer.

Writing
Report
Writing well - clearly, succinctly, and powerfully - opens doors, promotes self-confidence, and can be a whole lot of fun. If taught properly, almost anyone can learn to write well. Too many student's can't because they were taught poorly or not at all. Probably the biggest reason for that is that most teachers themselves are poor writers.

Report
If the English language made any sense, 'lackadaisical' would have something to do with a shortage of flowers. Having lived abroad for seven years myself - mainly in Europe and Asia - I have a good deal of experience learning foreign languages and navigating new cultures. That experience has also given me deep insight into the many challenges facing students who are learning English as a second language.
Test Prep
Report
Nothing bothers me more than hearing a high school junior describe herself as smart but a bad standardized test taker. That reflects a widespread misconception, and my job is to show students how to overcome it. Through patient preparation, native intelligence, and ordinary common sense, anyone can significantly improve their scores.

Report
I am an expert teacher and writer and have honed my practice over many years. I tutor only what I love: writing and all aspects of the English language. I work with no more than 6-7 clients at a time and am fully invested in their success. Outside of our sessions, I'm always happy to answer questions, provide advice, and lend books.
