Melody Anderson
Richmond, VA

Essay Writing Tutor

I have taught English Language Arts for seven years. My experience includes middle school, high school, and a dual enrollment composition course. I love teaching literary analysis and grammar, but I'd say my true passion lies in writing instruction and tutoring. I especially love helping seniors craft their personal statements for college applications! Regardless of their experience or interests, my hope is to help students gain more confidence in their reading and writing skills in our every-changing world. I believe the best way to do that is through developing clear, concise communication skills.

Chris Owens
Richmond, VA

3rd Year History/Social Studies Undergraduate at Virginia Commonwealth University

Writing in general is one of the most important aspects of our society, and as someone in the history field I understand the importance of good writing for professional use. I'm at the point in my essay writing journey that, even if I find some difficulty in the course material, I can always be confident in my ability to kick my grade up with a good essay. Whether you're writing for English, for Social Studies, or for personal use I'll do everything I can to share that confidence with you. Recently, I have also taken a course on creative non-fiction writing which is an interesting school of writing in its own right which can help inform your essay writing or your own creative non-fiction.

Mimi Darkwah
Silver Spring, MD

Junior at the Washington University in St. Louis

I have been studying at the Washington University in St. Louis and attended by the means of the QuestBridge application, which requires hours worth of personal essay and short essay application responses. My creativity and passion for literary self-expression showed up in my essays and honored me with being a QB Scholar, National Match Finalist, and WashU undergrad. During the pandemic, I aided other college applicants and close friends with their editing via common apps like Google Docs and Sheets or college-sponsored websites like College Vine. One friend who I spent the most time editing application essays for now attends Brown University and thanks me for supporting him in a capacity that I am strong in.

Andrew Rosenfeld
Hagerstown, MD

Bringing History to Life

I have more than twenty years of teaching undergraduate courses that all demanded varying levels of writing intensiveness. I developed assignments that challenged students to create and expand on theses that developed critical thinking and analysis. To support these assignments, I assisted students through individual conferencing in the development of their ideas and revision of their writing. I also conducted in-class workshops on thesis development, organization, and effective quoting, paraphrasing, and citing of resource materials. For three years I taught a first-year student seminar that introduced students to engaging with challenging readings and developing writing and critical thinking skills. The assignments all consisted of multi- and single drafts, with mandatory regular individual conferences to coach their writing. Numerous students acknowledged that the conferences were where the real learning on writing took place, and they claimed their writing improved because of them.

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!

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.
