About
I am a PhD higher education teaching-certified tutor. I also specialize in CV/resume development and editing. I have had extensive experience in one-on-one and small-group tutoring/training. I love teaching and work hard to identify students' key difficulties and then work with them in a manner that is meaningful and connects to their learning style.
It is a wonderful feeling to see a client grow in their knowledge and enjoyment of the material. I have a passion for both tutoring, but also in helping to coach clients in developing their best resumes/CVs and cover letters. It is wonderful to see those I work with grow and excel in the areas in which they are most passionate.

I loved working with Jennifer- she was amazingly responsive and gave me a great resume and cover letter. She really took into account of my current needs within my job search. I am feeling much better about the scary journey of switching careers, and I have Jennifer to thank for that. Would greatly recommend!

I am going through a very challenging life situation right now, and have been retired for two years but must return to the workforce. Jennifer was so kind and professional. She made wonderful recommendations, responded quickly every single time I sent an email, worked with numerous pieces and parts to pull my resume today -- and gave me support. I can not say enough about her professionalism and her genuine care. She provided me with an amazing resume and cover letter. I felt so much relief -- and so much more confidence. I highly recommend Jennifer for any assignment -- she is amazing -- and I am very, very grateful.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Hi! I really want my services to be affordable for anyone needing them. That said -- I offer a 10% discount to anyone currently unemployed and active duty Military. I also give a discount for referral services. I do my best to offer custom packages and will work with each individual to figure out the right financial plan. Looking forward to working with you!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I love talking to a new customer -- via phone and/or email to learn about their motivation and goals. During this discussion, we can decide the best way to move forward. For projects involving text writing and editing, I am only done (and paid) when you are happy with the final product!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a PhD higher education teaching-certified tutor. I've been creating and editing resumes and cover letters for over a decade.
