Award-Winning Writing Tutors
serving Aurora, CO

I am a student at the Georgia Institute of Technology studying Chemical Engineering. For the past several years, I have worked with students extensively. Through hosting events for younger kids to learn about STEM and for older teens to practice empathetic design, I know the importance of teaching students in ways that engage them rather than frustrate them, which I apply to my teaching. I have tutored high school students in a drop-in resource center in various subjects including math of all levels, chemistry, and English, making me adequately equipped in a variety of topics. I have also tutored several students long-term. Establishing relationships with students and exploring their unique learning styles is my favorite part of tutoring. I prioritize helping students discover HOW to learn in a manner that is the most effective for them, so they can begin to use those skills on their own throughout their education. Learning is a lifelong skill that requires practice for improvement; I strive to help my students gain confidence in their ability to learn.

Eric's approach to writing comes from years of philosophy coursework, where every paper demanded a precise thesis defended with airtight reasoning. He applies that same discipline to any genre — persuasive essays, research papers, creative nonfiction — by teaching students to outline their argument before they write a single sentence. The terrible jokes he cracks along the way make revision feel less like surgery.

Teaching fiction at Washington University and facilitating pedagogy training for MFA students gave Erinrose an unusual dual perspective: she knows what makes a sentence work as a writer, and she knows how to explain why it works as a teacher. Whether a student is drafting a personal narrative, a research paper, or a short story, she tackles the writing process from brainstorming through final revision with real craft vocabulary — not vague advice like "show, don't tell."

Lacey treats writing as an act of thinking — her approach zeroes in on how to build a clear argument from a messy first draft, teaching students to identify their own thesis buried in freewriting and restructure paragraphs around it. Her background in history and philosophy of science means she's comfortable coaching writing across disciplines, from lab reports to personal narratives.

Most students know what they want to say but struggle to organize it on the page. Tara tackles that gap by teaching concrete techniques — outlining an argument before drafting, using topic sentences as signposts, and revising for cohesion rather than just grammar. Her interdisciplinary background across anthropology and museum studies means she's comfortable coaching writing for research papers, creative projects, and everything in between.

Good writing starts with having something specific to say and knowing how to organize it before a single sentence hits the page. Alicia teaches outlining, thesis development, and paragraph architecture across genres — from argumentative essays to personal narratives — drawing on years of classroom teaching experience to pinpoint exactly where a student's process needs strengthening.

Getting ideas out of a student's head and onto the page is often the hardest part, and Emma's teaching background gives her a toolkit of strategies — outlining, freewriting, graphic organizers — tailored to how each student thinks. She walks writers through everything from constructing a solid thesis to varying sentence structure for impact. Rated 5.0 by her students.

Heidi approaches writing the way her journalism program at CU Boulder taught her: start with a clear claim, support it with specific evidence, and cut anything that doesn't earn its place. She's especially effective at breaking down the brainstorming-to-final-draft process so it feels manageable rather than overwhelming. Whether the assignment is a personal narrative or an argumentative essay, she zeroes in on structure and voice.

Seth's graduate work in theology required constant writing — constructing sustained arguments from primary sources, defending interpretations, and revising through multiple drafts. He brings that discipline to student writing, whether the assignment is a five-paragraph essay or a research paper, by zeroing in on thesis clarity and evidence selection.

Philosophy training rewires how you think about writing — every paragraph becomes an argument, every sentence a claim that needs support. Paige brings that discipline to essay structure, thesis development, and revision, teaching students to build pieces where each idea earns its place on the page. Rated 5.0 by students.

Transitioning from engineering to graduate humanities meant Cody had to rebuild his writing from the ground up — learning to construct arguments, develop voice, and write for audiences beyond a technical readership. That process gives him a clear memory of what it takes to improve as a writer. He teaches outlining and revision as concrete, repeatable skills rather than mysterious talents.

Clear writing starts with clear thinking, which is why Hannah spends time on outlining and thesis development before a student types a single sentence. She tackles common sticking points like building body paragraphs around evidence rather than summary, and crafting introductions that do real analytical work. Her training across both the sciences and humanities means she's comfortable coaching writing in virtually any discipline.

I am a undergraduate student who is willing to help other students in subjects that they may be experiencing difficulties in.

Clear writing starts with knowing what you actually want to say — and Rosemary treats outlining and thesis development as the real work, not just a box to check before drafting. Her environmental biology background means she's equally comfortable coaching narrative essays and data-driven research papers. She breaks revision into concrete steps: structure first, then argument, then sentence-level polish.

Getting ideas onto the page is one challenge; organizing them into something a reader actually wants to follow is another. Carson tackles both sides of the writing process, walking students through thesis development, paragraph transitions, and revision strategies rooted in his English background. Whether the assignment is a personal narrative or an argumentative essay, he teaches students to write with intention.

Good writing isn't just about having ideas — it's about structuring an argument so each paragraph builds toward something. Katie teaches the mechanics of that process, from crafting thesis statements to tightening transitions, drawing on her experience writing across both scientific and humanities disciplines. She's especially effective at getting students who say they 'hate writing' to actually engage with revision.

Getting ideas out of your head and onto the page is often the hardest part, so Jalonna starts with structured brainstorming techniques before any drafting begins. She then walks through organization, paragraph development, and revision — building each piece from outline to polished final draft. Students at every level, from middle school to college, have benefited from her step-by-step process.

Every writing problem is really a thinking problem — a thesis that hasn't been sharpened, a paragraph that drifts from its claim, an introduction that buries the point. Sarah's teaching spans high school essays to graduate-level academic writing, and she tackles each piece by first identifying what the writer is actually trying to say, then restructuring around that idea.

I am an experienced tutor who is passionate about math and science education. I have a deep understanding of math and science.

I also studied at an IB high school and graduated with the highest marks in my class.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky with a Master of Science in Animal Nutrition. I received my Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences from Cornell University. While I tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring math and feel that our school systems often fail students when it comes to math. I do not believe that some people simply "can't do math." I believe that some may need extra time and help, but everyone can do math. With patience and hard work, any student can learn. I also enjoy tutoring Spanish, which I have studied since I was in elementary. During undergrad, I even studied abroad in Barcelona and lived with a host family. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, dancing, TV/movies, and knitting.

I am a graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry as well as MCD (Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental) Biology while minoring in Chemistry in 2015. I love exploring all of the cool things that this world has to offer. By dabbling in a little of everything I can set my sights on what really holds my attention. My primary interests lie in the sciences, where learning what makes our world turn drives my passion for knowledge.

I am a certified teacher in English as a foreign language, certified to teach high school science abroad, and have developed my own independent program to teach elementary school children. I have tutored in all levels of algebra as well as geometry. I have 4 years of experience teaching biology, from AP/Honors level biology to 3rd grade level "Making Neuroscience Fun" programs.

I am a neuroscience and psychology double major from CU Boulder working to go to PA school down the road. I am originally from the East coast, but definitely prefer the hiking here. I was a learning assistant (basically student focused teacher aid) at CU, and took a course to learn more effective pedagogy. Afterwards, I was asked to be a mentor, and continued trying to help as much as I can.

I am not tutoring, I am studying to be an EMT. I also love backpacking and adventuring.

I am a current student at the Colorado School of Mines, studying to double major in Applied Mathematics and Engineering Physics. I have been tutoring students professionally for one year, but also through my schools for 5 years now. I tutor most kinds of Math and Science, and love doing so; being able to help spread understanding of a difficult concept never fails to bring me joy. As a current student, I understand how lecturing is often not the most effective (or interesting) way to learn, so I like to be very interactive and ask a lot of questions in my teaching, almost like a conversation between the student and myself.

I am a freshman at the University of Colorado Boulder majoring in astrophysics and chemistry with a 4.00 GPA. I have been passionate about science and STEM topics my whole life, focusing on them in both high school and college classes. In my free time, you can usually find me exploring forest preserves by day and surveying the skies with my telescope by night.

I am currently an undergraduate studying Computer Science at the University of Kansas, and am also a member of the KU Honors Program. As a native of Colorado, I love the great outdoors and have done everything from skydiving to climbing a few "14ers". I place great value on education and see the importance in attaining a deep understanding of academic subjects. I have a casual teaching style and do my best to teach my students the value of what they are learning. I specialize in Math and ACT and SAT prep.

Between her English major, journalism minor, and work on college-level writing at Penn, Amy has logged serious hours producing and revising prose across genres — analytical essays, creative nonfiction, reported pieces. She teaches writing as a process of iterative drafting, showing students how to move from a messy first attempt to a polished argument with a clear thesis and purposeful evidence.

Strong writing isn't about flowery language — it's about knowing what you're arguing and proving it sentence by sentence. Parag's political science training at Northwestern means he lives in thesis-driven essays, and he teaches students how to outline a clear claim, select evidence that actually supports it, and write conclusions that do more than restate the introduction.

Between philosophy seminars, research writing, and a genuine love of the craft, Tim has spent years learning how to make complex ideas land clearly on the page. He tackles everything from thesis development and paragraph architecture to voice and word choice, adapting his feedback to whatever genre or assignment a student is working on.

Getting ideas onto the page is one challenge; organizing them into something a reader can follow is another entirely.

Her Master's in Education means she knows how to break the writing process into steps that actually stick.

Strong writing is really rewriting — and Meghan learned that through two journalism degrees at Northwestern and daily practice at a New York magazine. She teaches students to draft with a clear argument, revise for structure and evidence, and edit for voice, moving a piece from rough idea to polished final draft without losing what made it theirs.

Sherry's dual background in linguistics and psychology — both from the University of Chicago — gives her an unusual lens on writing: she understands how sentences work structurally and how readers process them cognitively. She teaches students to sharpen thesis statements, tighten paragraph transitions, and revise with purpose, whether they're drafting a personal essay or an academic research paper. Rated 5.0 by students.

Brian treats writing as an engineering problem: identify the core argument, design the structure to support it, then refine sentence by sentence. His dual background in economics and computer science at Caltech means he's written everything from research papers to technical documentation, giving him a versatile toolkit for teaching persuasive, analytical, and expository writing.

Most writing problems aren't really about grammar; they're about a writer not yet knowing what they're trying to say. Lauren starts by untangling the idea — asking students to articulate their argument out loud before committing it to paper — then teaches them to organize paragraphs around claims and evidence. It's an approach rooted in her own graduate-level research writing.

Strong writing starts with a clear claim and a sense of audience, two things that sound simple but trip up students at every level. Noah teaches the mechanics behind persuasive and analytical writing — topic sentence architecture, evidence integration, transitions that actually connect ideas. His 5.0 rating speaks to how quickly students see their drafts improve.

Engineering coursework at Duke demands relentless clarity in writing — every claim backed up, every paragraph earning its place. Eric applies that same discipline when teaching essay structure, thesis development, and revision strategy, whether the assignment is a personal narrative or a research paper.

Learning to write well means learning to revise — to see your own sentences critically and understand why one version of a paragraph is clearer than another. Ayako tackles everything from thesis construction and paragraph transitions to tone and word choice, drawing on her English coursework at Trinity College Dublin. She's 5.0-rated and treats each student's voice as something to sharpen, not replace.

Strong writing starts with a clear claim and a deliberate structure, not with a blank page and good intentions. Keith's coursework at Williams spanned analytical essays in political science, close-reading papers in English, and research-driven arguments in history — so he adapts his coaching to whatever genre a student is tackling. He's especially effective at teaching thesis construction and the art of using evidence without letting quotes do all the talking.
