My coaching approach goes beyond mechanics. We'll delve into the psychology of writing, unlocking your creative potential. We'll explore techniques rooted in mindfulness and trauma-informed practices to foster confident expression for English language learners, aspiring writers, and professionals with writer's block.
As a published author, essayist, and screenwriter with experience crafting compelling narratives for a celebrated Canadian TV show, I understand the writing journey. I've also honed my skills through 5+ years of coaching writers of all levels, and 10+ years teaching English as a Second Language.
I can help you:
-Master the English Language: Whether you're a native speaker or learner, I can help you improve your grammar, style, and fluency.
- Craft Compelling Stories: Learn the art of storytelling and develop the skills to captivate your audience in fiction, essays, and even cover letters.
- Write Powerful Cover Letters: Showcase your skills and land your dream job with a persuasive and targeted cover letter.
- Ace Your Essays: Develop strong arguments, organize your thoughts effectively, and write compelling essays that stand out.
- Unleash Your Creativity: Unlock your inner voice and overcome writer's block to craft engaging and authentic creative writing.
Refine Your Resume: Craft a resume that highlights your unique qualifications and gets you noticed by potential employers.
