Linda Speckhals
Phoenixville, PA

Writing and Philosophy Instructor

Before I started school, my mother bought a record-keeping book to keep track of my school years. On the page for first grade, I had written "writer" on the lines for what I wanted to be when I grew up. I knew my path at that age, and although I occasionally had a few detours, I continued on it. I studied English in college, became a high school English teacher, and then received two MAs--in English and Writing. After teaching high school for 20 years, I became an adjunct professor, a position I have held for three years. I mainly teach freshman composition classes, although I occasionally teach other classes as well. I also work as a freelance writer and editor. As a tutor, I can tailor my lessons to each student’s needs.

Karen Travisano
Doylestown, PA

Word Expert, English Teacher, Essay Help

I'm a teacher, a writer, and a reader at heart. I love words, and yes, I love essays, grammar, and helping students improve their writing. I have taught in a full-time, public school for 34 years, so I have a lot of experience working with students on college essays, personal statements, thesis statements, narration, description, exposition, synthesis, persuasion, and research writing. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I love working with high school students to help them with writing, and I especially love helping them discover and refine college essays and personal statements while preserving their authentic voices. College essays are challenging because they require students to write very differently from the way they learned to write every other essay in high school. Providing written feedback to students about how to improve their organization, style, grammar, spelling, and punctuation has been a big part of my job for decades; however, every student learns differently, and I finding what works for each student is like solving a puzzle. I've co-taught with Special Education colleagues in In-Class Resource courses for 20 years and taught students from marginalized communities in a summer program. I've worked with Honors students, and I've worked in an autistic spectrum class in a middle and elementary school. Working with students on their writing is fun for me, and I'd really like to be able to help you with any kind of writing, too!

Joy Lyn
Burlington, NJ

Literacy Educator

Good Day! My name is Joy. I love words, language and expression! In 2017 & 2018 I taught an in-person college essay writing seminar to high school juniors and seniors at a local community college and the students expressed that they enjoyed the experience and learned a lot.

My credentials include a Master's degree in English and a Bachelor's degree in English both from Rutgers University. I also hold standard teaching certificates in English K-12 and Elementary Education. I have worked as a literacy educator for two decades and counting.

Nina DeMilta
Henryville, PA

College Access Mentor, Writing Tutor, and Religious Studies Tutor

Hello! My name is Nina and I am a senior at Nazareth University in Rochester, NY. I have had experience tutoring people of all ages in essay writing since my sophomore year of high school. I have been a head editor of my school's literary magazine. This job required me to check grammar, organization, and sentence structure of essays, poems, prose, and other forms of writing. In college, I am a music therapy student with a minor in interfaith studies, which enables me to write different types of essays regularly. For the last three years, I have been a tutor for my university's writing center. This has allowed me to work with various students of different ages and backgrounds, along with helping people write essays from all subjects (science, math, english, history, etc.). I have skills in compassionate mentorship through my major and I love to bring this into my tutoring. My goal is to help people gain confidence in their writing skills and give them the independence to take into their future academics. As a college student, I have experience with scholarship and college essay writing, academic writing (research, rhetorical analysis, argumentative, biographical, clinical, etc.), and creative writing (fiction, poetry, fantasy, etc.). I hope to provide affordable tutoring for those who cannot always afford the high price it takes to further their writing skills. Since I am in college, I am still learning how to be the best tutor possible, therefore I often charge less than that of a professional price.

Joy Simmons
Piscataway, NJ

I want writing to be less intimidating! I will support and guide you through your writing goals.

I am a high school counselor with 4 years of experience in college application essay writing and reviewing. I graduated with my master's in school counseling from Adams State University with a 4.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale. I work with my students one-on-one to create quality, succinct essays that give them an edge for their college applications. College essays can create a unique challenge for high school juniors and seniors. It's hard to know what admissions representatives are looking for and what they want to learn about applicants. I work with students on developing an objective, proper grammar, showing their personalities, and creating a narrative. Through my school counseling experience, I have learned how to encourage and empower students to find their own answers and begin steps towards independence and exploring their creativity.

Lana Van De Mark
Matamoras, PA

K-Higher Ed Reading and Writing Tutor

I graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with a Master of Arts in English and Creative Writing, and from SUNY Empire State College with a Bachelor of Arts in Literature. When I am not tutoring, I spend my time building my professional writing career. I have multiple publications with New York Lifestyles Magazine, Pet Lifestyles Magazine, Reptiles Magazine, and two finalist awards in the screenwriting industry. My tutoring lessons are designed based on the student's individual academic needs. There is no standard way of teaching reading and writing. I like my lessons to be as engaging, informative, and effective as possible. I like when my students are able to take away something new from a lesson and begin to feel more confident about their individual reading and writing abilities. With hard work, patience, consistency, and confidence, everyone can master reading and writing skills. When I am not tutoring or writing, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling with my husband, and curling up with a great mystery novel on my Kindle.

Donna Del Moro
Pequannock Township, NJ

College Essay/SAT Tutor

I have tutored students for the past 15 years on a one-to-one basis assisting them in presenting a powerful college application essay as well as assisting them with supplemental essays they may have needed to write. Every student has a voice and a story to tell and now more than ever, the college essay takes on increased importance as test scores have become optional at many institutions. Students just need someone to guide them in the process: from brainstorming to revising and editing to hitting send on their common application or any application for that matter. In the English/Language Arts classroom, I have also worked with high school seniors on their college essays. We would traditionally spend the entire first marking period working on their common app essays. I provided feedback continuously through the process.

Elaina Parsons
Toms River, NJ

Writer/Educator

Over the course of six years I have worn three very important hats. First, I have been a writing instructor for adults in memoir-style courses at my local community college. In these courses, I have taught adults aged 18 through 85 how to write and organize information from their lives into readable paragraphs and essays. I've been an editor at Vine Leaves Press where my duties range from reading new manuscripts across genres for accessibility and solid narrative--both fiction and nonfiction. After reading the new manuscripts, I evaluate the project in 1,000 words, so that a decision can be made from the EIC whether or not to purse publication. I also work in micro fiction, reading and formatting 50-word stories in a digital arena. I see this project from its digital daily distribution, all the way to its printed edition after a full year. Lastly, I write my own nonfiction, essay-centric books. I understand how to developmental edit bushels of words and ideas from first draft to publication. I have a young adult novel, a short story collection, and a memoir collection published by two small presses. I am a NJ-certified general education teacher and a certified teacher of students with disabilities. My speciality is writing and reading: ELA. My philosophy as an instructor is that every student has a unique voice, and one that is important and valuable.

Charlotte Francis
New York, NY

Ivy-League Student/Graudate

I have applied, and gone, to both undergraduate and graduate schools and know first hand the power of a good essay, and the power of a great essay tutor. I worked with many essay tutors who showed me the tricks to use, and the pitfalls to avoid when writing these types of essays. And they were never very obvious, for high schools teach the power of an academic essay, with a thesis, topic sentence, conclusion etc etc. But they don't necessarily teach you how to have a voice, how to add whimsy, and how to add the magic that is YOU. This is where the tutors showed me the roads to success. I got into my top choices of schools, Wellesley College, Columbia University, and Yale University. I credit these victories in large part due to my essay, and my writing abilities in general. I think I may have even won an award for them from Mount Holyoke College. But that aside, I am passionate about telling stories, and communicating to an audience. And the admissions elves behind the scenes are a very specific type of audience, and are looking for magic sentences that are unique. This is where I can help. I am an actor, I just got my MFA from Columbia in acting, and I know how to perform under pressure and communicate something magical. I know how to win an audience over. Additionally, as an actor, one often has to write one's own material, or pitch something, or invite people, and I have done it all. I have helped peers in college with their essays, taken advanced writing classes, and written countless papers on Music History/theory, Ancient History, Physics,...and oddly enough I've written many papers on Hobbits. I believe that I have the je ne sais quoi, and the experience to help a student going through this daunting time, and give them the support they need to find their inner strength in their own voice.

I have also gotten into the top Universities in America (Harvard, NYU, Brown) as the result of strong grades but equally strong essays designed and targeted for each school.

Yessica Martinez
New York, NY

Poet and Educator with Ivy-League Background

In 2015, I graduated with a bachelors in Comparative Literature from Princeton University where I was the recipient of two fellowship prizes: the Alex Adam Award for Creative Writing and the Henry Richardson Labouisse Fellowship. In 2018, I began pursuing a masters in creative writing at Cornell University with the financial support of the Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans. Until the fall of 2022, I taught Introduction to Freshman Writing and Creative Writing courses at Cornell. My work in the English department earned me the Martin Sampson Teaching Award and the James F. Slevin Assignment Sequence Prize. Throughout my long journey in the academy, I have often applied to fellowship prizes that have required me to meaningfully tell my story and express my sense of purpose. In our sessions, I would bring my expertise as a successful fellowship applicant, the pedagogical skills I have developed as an educator and my creative writing insights to support you in telling an authentic story. In my practice as a writing teacher, I lead by asking you to consider the advice “no surprise for the writer, no surprise for the reader” and subsequently involve you in a robust thinking process meant to lead you either to new revelations or to better questions. Although challenging, I hope the sessions will leave you invigorated and excited to return to your draft.

Leo Yablans
New York, NY

University of Oxford Graduate (MSt English), Award-Winning Saxophonist

I have a history of success in application writing, exemplified by my winning multiple research grants during my undergraduate studies and receiving offers of admission from every graduate school I applied to (University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and the University of Chicago). This was the result of extensive tutoring to enhance each of my own applications, where I learned important skills like efficient essay structure, how to write for a particular school, how to articulate my interests using high-level english, how to write directly, how to write to a word limit, and more. Moreover, I am very passionate about helping young students get into their top choice schools. I hope to not only to improve my students' results, but help instill in them a passion for writing, a better work ethic, and greater self-knowledge. A young person's college experience can have an enormously positive effect on their personal and professional lives; to help just one achieve their academic dreams would be a privilege.

Annie Trowbridge

Yale Grad College Essay Tutor

I have a Master's degree from Yale in history and religion and have taught full time for a year at a college preparatory private high school in New York. I worked with my students to prepare their writing skills for the colleges that they want to get into. I taught reading comprehension and analytical writing and also wrote many of their tests myself, so I have a strong sense for what exam evaluators are looking for. Before teaching, I was a college essay tutor for several years and have experience working one on one with students. It is important to me that the student feels well cared for and encouraged as we work through what can often be difficult material. My goal is to get the student into their dream school!

Abigale Morris
New York, NY

Reading/Writing Tutor with a Bachelor of Science in Professional & Technical Writing

I am Abigale, a millennial living in Brooklyn, New York. I currently work as a reading/writing tutor for adult learners studying for GED exams and College Prep. I recently graduated from the New York City College of Technology with a Bachelor of Science in Professional & Technical Writing. I graduated with honors and was awarded the status of Cum Laude for all of my efforts. I have also received Dean's List Honor five times. I have been writing for many years, and it has allowed me to learn new and interesting things about myself. I have learned that as long as I have dreams, I can write them down, and discover ways to make them come to fruition. Whether it’s by learning how to express myself more, or pursuing a thought, I am always in the process of learning about myself through writing. Since the art of writing and expression can be subjective, I have learned about condensing and compacting information so that it’s easily accessible to large and diverse groups of people. As a writer, my imagination tends to run wild, so I have adapted to creating content within the confines of the Plain Language Action and Information Network (PLAIN) federal guidelines. These guidelines have allowed me to be expressive and professional while ensuring that my audience understands the information being provided. I truly enjoy writing, and based on my accomplishments, I guess you can assume that I am good at what I do. I have written numerous pieces such as research papers, executive summaries, proposals, feasibility reports, manuals, and more. I am here to help and a session with me will allow you to learn so much about various writing styles and how to format papers for the best outcome. I will take my time to work with you and move at your pace. I will answer all of your questions to the best of my ability. I assure you, you will become a better writer if you take the time and put in the effort during our sessions. I look forward to working with you!

Louis Adorno
New York, NY

Screenwriter & Filmmaker

The art of writing well is the ability to speak volumes as “quietly” as possible. As a lifelong creative spirit, and passionate writer, I have spent years perfecting the written craft both in-and-out of the classroom. Creative Non-Fiction, Poetry, Screenplays, countless essays, and 100-plus page research projects - I have written (almost) everything. I worked in social media content creation, wrote, directed, and edited two award-winning short films, and produced a range of works from copywriting on multi-tiered ad campaigns with J. Walter Thompson for Feeding America and the AdCouncil, to writing for episodic public television. Although I am a Freelance Screenwriter and Filmmaker by profession, I look forward to contributing my writing skills to a new generation of young writers. You dictate the course. Whatever skills and techniques you need help with, I provide the knowledge and supplemental resources to help you improve!
