Andrew Primous
Evanston, IL

Multi-talented grad student; Teaching students to love writing one session at a time.

I am a top of the line Creative Writing coach. I give feedback, tips, mentorship, and more than all else will teach you how to write consistently, and how to entertain an audience. If you are someone who pictures themselves one day creating music or cinematic experiences on the grandest stage of all I am the tutor for you. I can cater my lesson plans to any age and experience level I have taught from middle school all the way to M.F.A students. My goal is to help creatives struggling to manifest their inner artist. I am an M.F.A student from SIUC with a lot of experience and a lot of connections and opportunities, who can play both as a tutor and a networker for talented writers. I myself have written over 1000 pages in my first year of grad school while maintaining a part time job, and being a full time student. I can take that idea for a book that you have been mulling over for the past decade, and bring it to life within months. In my course there are several options of focus-- they are as follows; Story structure(s), character structure, good vs bad dialogue, Defeating Writer's Block, writing for TV, writing for feature film, writing for short film, Genre accuracy, songwriting, and how to speak with executives. Before meeting we will discuss what you are most interested in learning, and how it is best to go about learning them. No matter your current level or your artistic field. If you want to begin to professionalize your craft, please reach out and make you the best writer you can be.

Jefta Iluyomade
Chicago, IL

Essay writing specialist with strong background in AP, and college-level LAS subject coursework.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English, Magna Cum Laude, from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Additionally, I am a member of the Sigma Tau Delta International English Honors Society. My strong academic background has provided me with a solid foundation in diverse literary genres, critical theories, and various forms of essay writing, from analytical and argumentative essays to MLA, and Chicago-Style research papers. My experience as a writing tutor in the Chicagoland area has further honed my skills in essay writing. For over a year, I assisted students in the Liberal Arts and Sciences domain, guiding them through the nuances of crafting compelling essays. I have worked one-on-one with students, helping them create personalized study guides, refine their thesis statements, structure their essays coherently, and use evidence effectively. This role has not only deepened my understanding of the common challenges students face but also equipped me with strategies to address these challenges. Furthermore, I am the proud author of "A Tribalist Two" – a novel that achieved a #1 position on Amazon's African American Literary Fiction chart – I possess firsthand experience in shaping ideas into coherent narratives, a skill directly transferable to essay writing. My work has been used as course material at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Why choose me? 1) Rich Academic Background: My in-depth study of English literature and language ensures that I bring both breadth and depth of knowledge to our tutoring sessions. 2) Practical Experience: My time as a Collegiate Writing Tutor has equipped me with techniques to help students across various proficiency levels. I can help students break down complex prompts, brainstorm ideas, organize their thoughts, and polish their writing to achieve clarity and persuasiveness. 3) Tailored Approach: I believe in a personalized approach. Each student is unique, and I strive to tailor my guidance accordingly.
