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.


My Teaching Methodology and Techniques:

Mindfulness & Creativity: Writing exercises, visualization, and journaling to spark creativity and develop your authentic voice.
Psychology of Writing: Analyze successful storytelling formats, learn effective revision techniques, and overcome writer's block.
Trauma-Informed Practices: Create a safe and supportive learning environment for everyone.


Our first session is offered for free, we'll meet and do some exercises, learn about your blocks, challenges, and superpowers. Know more about your learning style, what keeps you motivated, and what your strategic goals are.


A Typical Lesson Plan (Flexible and Customized):

- Warm-up: Engaging in mindful activities to get your creative juices flowing.
- Review: Briefly revisit key concepts from the previous session.
