Writing Tutor for Application Essays, Papers, and More

From 78 C$ /h

I’ve learned to decode and analyze what institutions and organizations seek in applicants. I will help you sculpt your biography and experiences into a compelling narrative that shows why you’re the perfect fit.

My unique approach demystifies writing by breaking the process down into 5 steps, which can be wrapped up in an hour or develop over several sessions to suit your needs.

1. Organize: I use the Google Drive platform to help you organize documents so you can declutter your mind and make space for writing.
2. Prioritize: We’ll break down your writing task into manageable deadlines, creating a timeline that reduces stress and maximizes efficiency.
3. Decode: I’ll help you translate application questions or essay prompts into clear, actionable language.
4. Flow: This is the fun part. We’ll sit down with a cup of tea to talk and brainstorm.
5. Crystalize: This is where the prep work pays off. We translate your ideas into professional, clear language. Then we use the magic of editing to transform your writing into a masterpiece.

About Me

I’m here to help you write successful applications, which will unlock opportunities and advance your career. Whether you’re working on a college essay, a grant application, or an English paper, I’ll help you leverage the power of writing and discover your inner Hemingway.

Education

I attended Northwestern University and graduated in 2017 with a Bachelor's Degree. I majored Communications and English, and the rigorous program at Northwestern improved my writing own skills and taught me how to help others do the same.

Experience / Qualifications

After graduating from Northwestern University in 2017 with a degree in Communications and English, I was selected as an AmeriCorps Teaching Fellow and trained in a one-on-one teaching program that’s “the most competitive of such programs in the nation, more competitive than admission to Harvard Graduate School.” Subsequently, I traveled to the Czech Republic on a Fulbright grant to teach writing to high school students.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

I believe one of the best ways to improve your English is to actually use it. My lessons focus on conversation and helping you feel more confident when speaking English in real-life situations.

I work with ESL learners, school students, and adults, adapting lessons to each student's level and goals. We can talk about everyday life, hobbies, school, work, or any topics that interest you.

As we talk, I help you build your vocabulary, improve your grammar, pronunciation, and sentence structure naturally. Instead of spending the whole lesson memorizing rules, you'll have plenty of opportunities to speak, make mistakes, and learn from them in a comfortable environment.

Whether you want to become more confident speaking English, improve your school performance, or simply practice your conversational skills, we can work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Hoi! Ik ben een 17-jarige tweetalige student uit Spanje en spreek vloeiend Nederlands en Engels. Ik zit in mijn laatste jaar van mijn A-levels (VWO) en heb mijn IGCSE’s al afgerond op een britse school. Hierna wil ik graag een opleiding tot leraar volgen.

Ik geef online Engelse lessen aan kinderen op basisschoolniveau. Ik kan helpen met spreken, lezen, woordenschat, uitspraak, grammatica en Engels voor school. Ik kan de lessen in het Engels geven en waar nodig in het Nederlands uitleggen.

Mijn lessen zijn ontspannen en aangepast aan het niveau en de leeftijd van ieder kind. Ik wil Engels vooral leuk maken en kinderen helpen om meer zelfvertrouwen te krijgen. 😊

**English**

Hi! I’m a 17-year-old bilingual student living in Spain, and I speak fluent Dutch and English. I’m currently in my final year of A-levels and have already completed my IGCSEs at a british school. After school, I would like to study to become a teacher.

I offer online English lessons for primary-school children. I can help with speaking, reading, vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and school English. Lessons can be taught in English, with explanations in Dutch when needed.

My lessons are relaxed and adapted to each child’s age and level. I want to make learning English enjoyable and help children become more confident. 😊

Is your child changing school systems, preparing to enter a French- or English-speaking school, or simply looking to become more confident in speaking and writing? I design a tailored programme in French or English. 🇨🇭 🇬🇧 🇫🇷
Who it's for: children and teenagers (primary, middle and high school), in international schools, moving between two systems or catching up.
Children who change schools and countries often are remarkably capable, but they rarely get to build a stable sense of "this is my place." In each lesson, your child practises speaking with confidence, leading part of the session, defending an idea and reflecting on their own progress. The goal is not only a stronger level in French or English, but a child who walks into a new classroom knowing they have something to say.
How I work: a first diagnostic lesson to identify level and goals, followed by a personalised learning plan. Every session is prepared for your child: conversation, reading, writing and study skills. Parents receive regular feedback.
My background: bilingual English-French, teaching experience in France, Finland (non-formal education) and an elite international school in Switzerland.
I take a limited number of students to guarantee quality follow-up.
To start, book a first diagnostic lesson.
🇫🇷 🇬🇧🇨🇭

Available in person in Milan or online.
