Creative Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Swampscott, MA

I have tutored students before in the elementary and middle school grade levels. I have young siblings who I help out also. I do not have a degree in teaching but I feel that I provide the same amount of experience. I haven't had a lot of experience so I would like to gain more through teaching my new students. I am very patient and always help my students understand not just how to do it, but why we do it. I do not give up on students who struggle with work and I understand their needs. I am very smart and willingly to help any student in need.

B.A. in Creative Writing. Passion for fiction, non-fiction, poetry, prose, journalism, and feature writing. As a tutor, I can help you express words meaningfully and artistically. I recently graduated from Gordon College with a degree in English Literature and a concentration in Creative Writing. I manage two personal blogs, which include my non-fiction stories, poetry, and artwork, and I have published 5 different articles for various Gordon journals. In high school, I took all Honors English courses, and received college credit for my English AP Exam. At Gordon College, my essay writing abilities, as well as my breadth of creative writing, rapidly developed as I typically had 3-4 writing assignments a week. Writing has become a hobby and a career path for me, and I help others write, edit, and consolidate their ideas. Courses taken include: Intro to Creative Writing Advanced Creati

Hello! I am a young tutor that enjoys helping kids. I get straight As in school and I enjoy writing and math. I have a passion for writing and when it comes to writing, I go all out and become very creative. Math is also my passion. If I do not understand a problem, then I think of all possible ways to solve it until I know I got it correct. I tend to analyze a question and do I answer them myself. Then I explain how I got my answer.

I have an MFA in Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University and have had 11 short stories published. I also edited the award-winning children's book Lucas the Traveling Crab by David Rawding. I try to empower students to learn how to improve their writing. I start by showing what works well, the strengths of the piece itself. I then show them what can be improved in the work with further revision. I often will use examples of first drafts of famous and acclaimed authors, and sometimes use my own work as an example of poor first drafts and how a work can improve with revision. I have a passion for writing and literature that is usually contagious. I have over 15 years experience in a writing, editing, and reporting capacity covering news and publishing industries, and higher education. I also have formal training and education on how to edit, write and give formal, positive f

I am a graduate of Harvard Law School, where I received my Juris Doctorate. I have a diverse set of personal and professional experiences that make me a compassionate yet firm teacher. I have taught French to children and Legislation to law students at Northeastern University School of Law. Practicing as a corporate lawyer, family counselor and non-profit/in-house lawyer gives me a broad platform from which to tutor. Plus, I am more than a lawyer, I have a passion for all things food, and have recently rekindled my love for the stage as an actor. I am most proud of being a mother to a mostly well-adjusted fifteen-year-old daughter. We live in Somerville with three adopted animals, two cats and one dog.

As an instructor, my style is usually to help a writer discover what they are trying to say, even if they aren't sure of it. From there, we can tackle the point and purpose of their story, which will help all of the other aspects click together. I can recommend short stories or novels by writers who seem to have the same style as the writer I'm working with, and will work with them to examine the methods and techniques that these writers use how they may be beneficial to my own students work. Ultimately, my goal is to make sure that the writer creates exactly what he set out to create. Not my vision, not the vision of any other writer, but their own piece, something that is unique to their skills and could not have been created by anyone else. I attended an arts specific high school where I completed an intensive 4 year creative writing program. During that time I was published several t

I consider myself a very laid back person and am flexible in terms of addressing the student's concerns. I primarily work in subjects related to writing. My training is in philosophy, so I tend to focus on helping students develop strong reasoning/arguing skills and a precise voice. I find that these skills, which are heavily emphasized in philosophical writing, carry over well into all forms of academic writing. I have worked at the Salem State University writing center for the last two years. At the writing center, I work with students on papers in all subjects, from math to English. My experience at the center has helped me develop methods for helping students plan and organize papers, and also for addressing grammar and style issues. I also have a lot of experience working with ESL students.
