My comments on tutoring Composition : Over 10 years experience in teaching college level composition and writing classes

Brief lecture-style introduction to the material, followed by hands-on practice with a variety of activities that give students the opportunity to solve problems and discover answers on their own and through collaboration; much one on one consultation and individualized instruction to improve writing.
