...to hone my editing skills in publishing internships with science fiction/fantasy publisher Tor Books in downtown NYC.

It loses its beauty and particularity the second discouragement spreads, the instant anxiety kicks in. I believe a good tutor must do more than teach content. She offers positive reinforcement and guidance, discerning aid every step of the way. Outside of academia, I act and sing...

As important as spelling and grammar are, writing goes far beyond these basics. Your child will be required to write on many levels. Their academic success will depend on their ability to understand narrative writing, descriptive writing, and expository writing, and the ability to create a cohesive introduction and conclusion. If not understood in class, a tutor could help shore up any weaknesses before your student falls behind. Their writing ability will influence all future academic performance and job potential. If you're looking for writing tutors in Manhattan, NY, for your student, the educational directors at Varsity Tutors will be happy to help.
Nothing builds enthusiasm for writing more than targeted, personalized lessons. A tutor can integrate topics of interest, so your child becomes more excited to learn how to write well. Other relevant materials and tools can be included, saving time and reinforcing concepts that your child could need to know. The tutor is an expert professional in one-on-one instruction. Varsity Tutors can help you locate an independent tutor in Manhattan, for your child, who is experienced in helping students prepare for writing. Your student will get all the help and benefits from working with a teacher who can cater to their needs.
A "one-size fits all" approach causes some students to fall behind in the classroom. Your child's tutor can work with their learning style and apply multiple teaching methods if they have to. They can include fun exercises such as character development, writing to a particular audience, and practicing with a specific style. A tutor can also provide encouragement, which can boost your child's confidence. Better yet, help is available to find such a person. Our educational directors can locate an independent tutor in Manhattan for your student, who is skilled at helping students prepare for writing. This saves even more time and energy.
Each tutor is able to meet your child's scheduling needs. They can meet after school, or even on a weekend if need be. Lessons can be set up anywhere that is comfortable; if your child learns best at home, for example, the tutor will travel. They'll also set up remote face-to-face sessions on the web, using a live learning platform to communicate and manage lessons and assignments. No matter what, a personal writing tutor could help your child improve their grades in writing. Passing the class is not the only goal. The tutor can instill skills your child takes with them for life.
