It is my delight to engage, inspire and guide students to improve and advance their academic writing, songwriting, guitar, keyboard, vocal, and general musicianship skills. My students benefit from my two decades plus of classroom teaching experience; my coaching expertise gained in tutoring with WriterCoach Connection; my music teaching offered in private lessons and public school ensemble classes; and from my "real world" Entertainment Industry experience and academic degrees in Film/Theater Arts and Music Composition and Creative Writing with Magna Cum Laude Honors. I've tutored students at all levels and skills; what I love and enjoy the most is seeing the light of knowing in a student's eyes that tells me I've succeeded in guiding them to a new skills level. My students' success is my success!

I've received gratifying student feedback affirming that I'm an outstanding English tutor because I care deeply about and dedicate myself to my students' Writing and Language Arts success. My tutoring is informed by my natural teaching ability; by my State of California English and ESL instructor Credential; and by my lifelong track record of academic, creative writing and publishing successes. My students likewise benefit from my expertise gained from tutoring English/Language Arts with WriterCoach Connection and from my songwriting and media-writing knowhow.

I look forward to guiding students to greater levels of academic writing and musical success. In addition to teaching Academic Reading, Academic and Creative Writing and Music to k-12 students, I've also taught Math to k-8 classes and have led small groups of Resource students in English/Language Arts and Math. I welcome suggestions and resources from parents and students toward improving my tutoring approaches. I'm easy to reach and will provide timely responses. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson.
