Nanaimo’s Leading Writing Tutor
The writing courses are designed to give students practical strategies for tackling the writing assignments they receive in the classroom. As a certified teacher, I carefully align each lesson with the BC provincial guidelines, ensuring that the skills your child learns can be directly applied to their schoolwork. Whether it’s writing paragraphs, stories, descriptions, or essays, I provide hands-on guidance to help them feel more confident. Through engaging exercises and personalized feedback, students build a “toolbox” of writing tips they can use in future assignments. My goal is to make writing less intimidating and more enjoyable for every student.
