If you are thinking of building on your writing skills, then you have picked the right person. Writing gets a message across in the most simplest way, but Creative Writing will move a reader. As your tutor, you will be guided through a series of tasks that aim to increase you writing abilities. You will build your vocabulary, refine your syntax and be given scripts that will stimulate creativity. My teaching experience started as a volunteer tutor for ESL learners. For two years I volunteered at the Benjamin Franklin Library, located in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles. It was a big step, but I was ready for the challenge! As a tutor I was responsible for developing my own teaching style and schedule with students. I used teaching materials provided by the library and I also encouraged students to pick their favorite books to let my students know that they can be decision makers. After years
