After thirty years as a teacher at a Quaker independent school in suburban Philadelphia, I am now tutoring students in writing and research. I believe everyone can learn to write by understanding the process of writing and practicing the necessary skills. Good writing sometimes seems like a mystery to students because they often haven't been shown the steps to move from idea to finished essay. I know I can help students feel more confident as writers.

Kristine is awesome! Thank you for working with us.
Kristine is such a kind person with great patience and thorough insight! My son learns a lot in every session. Kristine adapts to my son's challenges and he really enjoys working with her on different writing skills. She was very helpful in helping my son write his high school essay and many other things. I am so grateful we found Kristine!

responsible and knowledgeable
she is very patient to teach my son for his writing, and she even did research before the lesson, so the meetings always went quick and well to cover all the points. I definitely would like to work with her for the rest of the school year.

Kristine has been an exceptional resource for the host daughter. My host daughter is from China and a freshman at a private school in PA. Kristine is helping her with writing. Sentence structure, verb tenses, capital letters, punctuation and citing sources are all tricky concepts for most Chinese students. Kristine is using her years of experience with other students to help my daughter navigate her new school and country.
