À propos

Turn your English into skillful writing. Not only that, learn how to apply it to the current digital world! I’m an English & digital writing tutor who helps you learn with confidence. Whether it’s mastering persuasive essays, crushing creative writing, or finally understanding when to use “their” vs. “they’re,” I’ve got you. From JK to Grade 12, I tailor lessons to your needs—no boring worksheets, just engaging, practical skills that boost confidence and grades. This generation's shorter attention span calls for succinct but accurate writing to capture interest, which is why my expertise and knowledge in the media industry can help you understand how to write online content. I've worked in a newsroom, I've published stories, and I've trained several editors and interns along the way. I'm enthusiastic and love to have fun when teaching. I always help my peers with university applications, assignments, and job applications with successful results. Since I was young, I've always excelled at written and verbal communication.

Éducation

Western University

2015 - 2019
Media, Information and Technoculture, Communications and Journalism
In MIT, studies focused on modern communication and information technologies, and how they influence your life in ways that you may not even recognize. But what are media, exactly? How do media institutions, technologies, and content inform the development of society and culture and influence our activities and behaviours? In turn, how do users shape media? What role does the economic structure of media institutions play in shaping our relationship with them? In what ways does the organization and presentation of information influence our understanding of the world and our place in it? How are user-generated forms of media such as social networking sites, blogs, and collaborative informational sources like Wikipedia changing the modern media environment?
