Letter to Students

DEAR STUDENTS: INDIVIDUAL TUTORING

Tutoring may seem difficult at first because you are talking to a person who is new to you. You may hear yourself describe your feelings about writing, and they may be difficult to understand. I will try my best to help you understand those feelings, so you can open yourself up to new kinds of writing.

Each 50-minute session starts with my listening to you. When you bring an assignment to work on, you’ll talk about what puzzles you, how to better organize, or even how best to express yourself. I offer recommendations and advice, possibly skills practice, and guide you as you write.
