As someone who specializes in creative writing and aspires to be a novelist, I have had several creative writing courses throughout my college career, including short story writing. As a tutor of shor... t story writing, I will teach students how to create compelling characters that drive a plot forward, literary devices (eg. imagery, foreshadowing, syntax), and more. Stories, like all creations, come from within us and as a tutor, I will help students to look within themselves and put their experiences and imaginative power on paper (well on screen, if you want to be technical). read more

Hello! I'm Tarah, I graduated from Purdue University Northwest in 2021 and currently hold a bachelor's degree in English (writing concentration). I am an aspiring novelist and have a passion for liter... ature. My tutoring style depends mostly on the student.

My hobbies include gardening, playing the piano, and of course, reading and writing. When I'm not busy, I spend my time wandering through the library in search of my next read, sniffing all of Homegoods' candles, and watching Bridgerton.read more
