More About This Tutor...

I have experience tutoring in high school age students in grammar, composition writing, and journalism. In addition my years of experience as a journalist in Columbus and Elyria has given me the needed perspective of diversity as well as provided the necessary experience of managing others. I have worked with young people at all levels of understanding of the English language, from needed help with figuring out the difference from a verb and an adverb, to understanding the purpose of an independent clause and a dependent clause.
