Write Seattle: Tutoring, Coaching, Test Prep

I'm a full-time tutor and educator located in Seattle, although I work online with students across the country. I hold a Master's degree in Creative Writing from the University of Washington and a Bachelor's degree in English and Philosophy from Concordia University in Montreal. As a student, I won various academic award––you can read my full resume on my website, which you can find by googling "Write Seattle LLC." I hold a Cambridge CELTA, a certificate in ESL teaching, and have taught in North America and South Korea, in classrooms and one-on-one. I've also taught the verbal side of GMAT and GRE prep classes for a larger test-prep company in Seattle. I scored in the 99th and 98th percentiles, respectively, on those tests. Over the past decade, I've been helping students of all ages develop their reading and writing skills, organization and accountability, and overall academic curiosity and confidence. During that time, I've learned as much as my students have. My mom was a resource teacher who helped students with disabilities thrive in the classroom, and later worked as educational consultant for international schools: between my own experience and research and my regular "consultations" with her, I've developed a pedagogical approach that emphasizes relationship building, student-led discovery, and a growth mindset.
