Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to let the student do a lot of talking and express their ideas. Then I help them get those ideas "on paper"!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a bachelors degree in communications from Boston University with a minor in English. I have also been a professional journalist and copywriter for many years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I tutor at an hourly rate. Starting at $75 but can go up to $150 if a short-term gig like helping write and edit college essays.
How did you get started teaching?
I just started by helping some of my daughter's friends. Then somebody from my industry reached out to me and I helped their college-bound student with her essays.
I found it very gratifying and now I'm looking to make a career out of it!
