Everyone needs a Grammar Nazi

Welcome to the Grammar Nazi. Now prepare to learn.

You're here because you need an A on your next writing assignment. You want to write the kind of scholarship letters that inspire alumni committees to throw wads of cash in your direction. Your eyeballs are bleeding from all the sleep you've lost trying to squeeze out a measly five-page essay.

I can help you.

I know what it takes to write stellar college essays--the kind that win awards and scholarships. I know because I've done it. I've also spent my years as a student and beyond tutoring writers of all ages and levels: high schoolers, undergraduates, graduates, ESL students.

I've helped students with papers on nearly every subject. Poetry. Art history. Quantitative analysis. Japanese anime.

I have tutored at the University of Memphis in Tennessee--where I graduated with my degree in English Literature--and at The Citadel Military College in Charleston, SC, where I earned a Master Level 3 tutoring certification from the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA).

I will teach you to write better, faster...or die trying.

My blog will cover myriad topics related to college composition, including:
* How professors grade essays
* Writing killer thesis statements
* Analyzing poetry and literature
* Introductions and conclusions
* Brainstorming and organization

And I'll explain it all in plain English.

If you need other resources, check the column on the right. The links there will lead you to websites with more writing information, including handouts and practice tests. I will be adding more links in the future.

I'll also be adding more writing blogs to my blog roll for your perusing pleasure.

In the meantime, feel free to take one or both of the polls in the left-hand column. And don't hesitate to leave a comment or a question after a post. If there's a particular topic you'd like to see covered, let me know! The Grammar Nazi is officially on duty.
