Write Right Tutoring

Part II of my new venture; Part I to follow:
writeright button 1

You’re a newly minted high school graduate or a mature student going back to get your degree. Either way, what makes you nervous about your college days ahead is the idea of all that writing you’re going to have to do.

I can help:

I’m an experienced writing teacher at the college level with advanced degrees in English. That means I’m fluent in English-speak, so I can translate your history prof’s instructions about required papers and demystify all of your college composition writing classes.

  • I can help you with a little–say, copy edit your final draft…
  • Or I can help you with the wholeshebang–from brainstorming a topic to developing the final version of your written paper.
  • I can help you with just one paper in one class…
  • Or I can guide you through an entire course.

What I won’t do is write the paper for you…
What I will do is teach you essay-writing strategies that will serve you through your entire academic career and beyond.

I charge $45 an hour and I’m available in the Los Angeles area or via video chat. See my full resume at LinkedIn or contact me at byjane(at)gmail(dot)com.

    I’ll vouch that working with Jane is as easy as butter. She is a warm, funny, highly skilled professional. Definitely worth the investment.

      Ummmm, shouldn’t that be “buttah”, ALB?

    What a great idea. That you’re wise, funny and an acclaimed writer make this venture seem like an obvious win win. And I love the name. All the best to you Jane!

      We do keep plugging away, don’t we, Anne! No one should ever count us out!!!

        Never ever. We might just be getting started…

    That “being fluent in English-speak” is a valuable qualification! I know a few college students (and their parents) and I will pass this along to them. Good luck, Jane!

      Thanks, Florinda, I love that I can count on you for support!

      Makes me want to break out in song… Guys & Dolls, right?

    Sounds like a great idea…hope you’re wildly successful with this

    1. janegassner says:
      September 2, 2014 at 11:01 am

      Thanks, Ann, the idea just kinda evolved over the years.

    You also may want to suggest helping with college app essays.

    1. janegassner says:
      September 2, 2014 at 11:06 am

      That’s on the list of possibles, Lisa. I’m starting out with my focus specifically on college because that is my arena of teaching experience.

    A great service, J!

    1. janegassner says:
      September 2, 2014 at 11:07 am

      Hope so!

    Get this posted on some school bulletin boards.

    1. janegassner says:
      September 2, 2014 at 11:09 am

      I was talking with my family about this last night, Jayne, and the consensus seemed to be that school bulletin boards as material artifacts were passe! I’ll explore schools’ virtual bulletin boards, though.

Getting Older, Getting Better with AARP’s Life Reimagined

I’d like to say that today, the woman who runs this site, The Other Side of Sixty, is calmer, more controlled, and surer of where she’s going. But that would be a lie.

Sigma Tau Alpha STS, the venerable Greek House

To be good at social media is to understand the marketplace, the machinations of the brands, and the way people's minds work. It's an equation that defies Ten Easy Steps and moves somewhere into the fine art of social psychology. I love it.

So what have I been up to for the past six months? Writing to earn a living.

Disrupt Aging

I would say that the next step from complaining (in blogs and the like) about culture and media and all the other Theys who we blame for telling us what we are is to actively do something about it.
