Jess D.
Private tutor in Phoenix, AZ
Education
I am currently a Junior at Grand Canyon University maintaining a cumulative GPA of 3.1. My course of study includes two majors; Christian Studies and Communications.
Experience
I have previous tutoring experience in helping my fellow students on how to write successfully in APA format, and in the formulation of essays. As someone who suffers from both ADHD, and dyslexia (the changing of letters and words), I can definitely help those who suffer from the same to start writing with more confidence and proper technique. Writing an essay is simple, the content is all about understanding your subject and creating a paper that reflects your knowledge. The formulation is all about correct punctuation, grammar, and following the right parameters given to you by either your professor or teacher. Personally, I am a freelance writer, who has completed over 62 articles for clients. In my free time, I am concentrated on building a small business, for after college, which is completely relied upon my writing skills. As a full time student, my job is to write, and I want to be a tutor to give the generation behind me a chance to be as successful as possible! The world is made of words, and I want to give others a chance to be the best writers they can be. Success is fully relied on ones skills, and writing is a very lucrative and necessary skill to have in the real world, no matter what you do with it! I have successfully completed both of my required English writing courses with gusto! My first English Course (English Composition I ) was completed with 111%, an A, which is way above average; and my second course (English Composition II) was completed with a B. Ever since then, my GPA has reflected my writing skill, and I have written at least 6 essays in every class every semester. Helping others and giving back is my dream. When I graduate in 2016 with two degrees, I plan on exploring the communications world by working in the industry of either full-time freelance writing, or within the business world. The subjects, learning disorders, and study skills/plans that I have listed in my subjects, are the ones that I know well. I can teach someone how to write a great essay by only knowing; the subject, the formulation asked to be used for the essay, and how to manage ones learning disorder as they go along. I know it can be frustrating, but it is possible to learn how to write great, even with a handicap! It doesn’t matter if you’re a high school student, college student, or even an adult student (like me). I can help you with the APA style and academic writing skills to create something that is grade A worthy.

Hobbies
My hobbies and interests all involve something nerdy for the most part. Walking in my Christian life is also a huge part of me as well. Hobby wise, my life is mainly filled with, and surrounded by writing. I write everything from: short stories, film scripts, novels, creative essays, informative essays, and even write content for two of my of blog's that are in the building process. I love Harry Potter (some people may not agree), Lord of The Rings, movies, science fiction, some PC video games, hiking, and digital photography. Also, I am very interested in studying and understanding my faith as I grow into an adult.
