Career Experience

In my early career, I worked as a reporter for a small community newspaper. Then, I launched my own monthly magazine, which circulated in our region for more than a decade. Once I received my graduate degree in writing, I began teaching at the local college and working as a public librarian. In all, I have used my writing skills as a foundation for a 30-year career as a creative, journalistic, and nonfiction writer.

I Love Tutoring Because

I enjoy helping students learn, understand, and overcome challenges. Writing is a passion of mine, and most students make it more complicated than it needs to be. No matter what we're writing - reports, news, journal entries, etc. - writing and communication are core keys to success. I love helping my students better express themselves.

Other Interests

Creative writing, Gardening, Painting, Reading, Singing, Watching Movies, Writing, Yoga

I think it is strange that tutors are not allowed to provide unofficial scoring of an essay based on a given rubric.

It's tough to do anything in 1500 words. This is not the format I'd have chosen for an actual short story, however, it's been a learning experience and I do feel the stands on its own at least for the contest. :) You've given me something to think about.

The essay details imply some areas need improvement, but there is only one comment in the reviewed document and no suggestions in the essay feedback sections. Other than placing one comma, I do not understand the areas that reflect this review.
