“We have been thrilled with Emily’s services! My son was initially resistant to the idea of a writing coach, but he really enjoys working with Emily. Her feedback has made the essay writing and editing process very smooth. She is very responsive to questions outside of sessions and gets her feedback to him quickly. He is very pleased with the final result and felt confident submitting his essays to his top choice colleges.”

“Emily exceeded my expectations as a writing tutor. She did an outstanding job of proofreading my senior thesis and giving critical insight on how to improve my writing overall. On top of that, she was a delight to work with!”

“Emily worked very well with my son over the summer with virtual tutoring. My son is 11 he responded very well to her. She is patient and thorough and went above and beyond to help him improve his TDA writing skills. I was worried about him going into 6th grade as this was an area in which he struggled. I'm happy to report that his teacher used his TDA as an example in class this week! Thank you Emily!”

“I remember the first tutoring session I had with Emily; she impressed me by her warm and caring tutoring style which made me choose her to be my personal tutor for one year. During our many tutoring sessions, she quickly became familiar with my writing style and helped me with the places where I needed to be improved. She clearly pointed out the grammar mistakes that I make often and made me aware of them for my next paper. Her tutoring style naturally encourages her tutee to become better. It was a great experience to work with her!”

“I have been in the United States for about 5 years, and I still find writing in English difficult. Fortunately,  I was introduced to Emily to help me with my writing. I had two other tutors before working with her, but in such a short amount of time, I have learned important rules and essential writing skills in order to complete academic essays. Emily helped me organize my thoughts and shared her amazing ideas with me—which resulted in getting an A on my recent final essay for my ESL class. She is very dedicated to helping her students, that even if we ran out of time for the tutoring session she would stay there to help until we were done. I recommend her as a tutor to those students who would like to improve their writing skills. ”

“Emily is a perfect tutor. I am very happy to have studied with her. She is very helpful and willing to help me in anything (not only in English). As an international student, she has helped me make great progress in English! Thank you so much Emily! I will miss you so much!”

— BeiTong, China

“Emily has been my ESL tutor merely for one semester, but helped me improve my English significantly! She’s wonderful, and the tutoring sessions looked more like talking to a caring and helpful friend or a sister, rather than a dry lesson. Emily has been nothing but kind, patient, and encouraging, always finding the balance between planning the sessions through and giving me the freedom to choose what I needed to focus on myself: that is, she would always ask what I wanted to practice in the beginning of our each meeting, but if I wasn’t sure, she would offer a couple of possible subjects to work on. I was already hopelessly in love with English when I started working with Emily, but if you’re not, her gentle encouragement will definitely change that!”

“Emily read my writing with sensitivity and generosity. With her help, I've been able to create clear and cohesive sentences.”

— Hannah, New York

“Emily is very professional. She’s great with teens, really gives great feedback. I would highly recommend her to help your child polish up their essays. My child really liked working with her. She’s very flexible even with all the different time zones.”
