International & ESL Writers

I have worked with international and multilingual writers for more than twenty years. My approach is patient, explanatory, and individualized. I provide support and sustained coaching for those who seek greater confidence and flexibility in written English across a variety of projects:

• Coursework

• Research papers

• Application materials

• Professional correspondence, presentations and written statements

Together, we can work on:

• Grammar

• Syntax

• Idiom

• Punctuation

• Vocabulary

• Sentence structure

…and on the less visible conventions that often make English-language writing difficult:

• how directly to state a claim

• how individual paragraphs function successfully within a larger text

• how much contextual information a reader needs to understand a writer’s argument

• how stylistic and organizational expectations change among disciplines and professional settings
