Individual Tutoring

It is the clarity of thinking that makes a convincing writer.

We work together on

• Reading Habits
• Writing choices
• Helpful thinking skills

Students learn to ask personal thinking questions

• How does context effect meaning
• Which theme is most important

Students are guided and supported to

• Sustain their argument with a thesis and sub-claims
• Consider each assertion and test its opposite
• Check claims against textual evidence
• Make a hierarchy of ideas
• Find the best proof for each assertion
• Explain the evidence to the reader
• Revise carefully and cite sources
