Experience
What separates me from other English and writing tutors is my real world experience. I knew I wanted to be a journalist from a young age, and have always applied myself towards achieving that goal. Since graduating from school last winter, I have been writing for Boston magazine and Forbes. While I was in college, I penned a weekly column for the Boston Herald and also co-hosted a sports talk show on SiriusXM. In addition to assisting your child in the classroom or college application process, I can help steer him or her towards pursuing a passion they may have in life. In the Internet Age, the possibilities are endless. (I can speak to that, as I launched my own Red Sox podcast when I was a pre-teen and built a large enough audience to land as a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno a few months later.)
