Award-Winning Writing Tutors in Oklahoma City, OK

Hello! My name is Emily and I am so excited to work with you or your student. I am a Stanford University graduate, where I majored in American Studies and minored in Creative Writing.

I truly believe life is a never-ending journey of learning, and I hope to share that enthusiasm with my clients. ... My teaching philosophy is to keep kids engaged by connecting the content with their everyday lives. I think that by keeping kids smiling and interested when they are learning, they will be more successful when applying their knowledge.
