About Isobel C.
Close
I am an English born and educated creative writing, reading and ESL teacher. I teach English to grade school students, college students or adults who need need extra help improving their grades or learning the principals of good reading or writing.
Relaxed one on one tutoring is an excellent way to improve writing and reading skills and I make make my lessons fun and tailor them to each individual student's learning style. Large schoolroom classes make this challenging, so extra tutoring is very beneficial.
I have been tutoring students for more than 25 years and love what I do. Students can take 1-3 lessons a week in 30, 45 or 60 minute sessions.
About Isobel
My name is Isobel and I am a writing instructor. I have published in England and was voted Poet Laureate of a city in California.
I was born and educated in England and love to write and read and help students who may find some of the lessons in school a little challenging. I can help you get onto the right path so you improve your skills and feel confident. We cover grammar, spelling, punctuation and creative writing and I try to make the learning process fun!
I would love to help you get good grades in writing and reading or, if you are an adult, just encourage you to enjoy writing well. I can guide you through memoir writing which is a very gratifying and wonderful experience as well as providing children, grandchildren and other family members with the story of your life!
I hope you will plan to take a lesson wi
Thank you, Isobel
