Writing Tutor; English/Literature Tutor; College Essay
It’s summer after a grueling spring semester. For juniors, summer means prepping for applying to colleges, and it is the perfect time to write the College Essay.
Colleges across the country are already saying that, because spring grading was sporadic and SATs and ACTs were almost impossible to take in a proper setting, they will be largely overlooking these factors when assessing applications. This means that the COLLEGE ESSAY will be more important than ever. SUPPLEMENTS, too, are going to count for a lot this year.
I’ve been a PRIVATE ENGLISH TUTOR since 2003. I tutor students in middle school, high school and college – including AP English, AP History, and AP Government.
I serve Weston, Westport, Wilton, Ridgefield, New Canaan, Greenwich, Darien, Norwalk and Fairfield, as well as New York. Now, more than ever, I provide services via phone and google.docs anywhere in the country.

“I can’t say enough about the help that Deirdre gave my grandson. She was genuinely interested in his success throughout the whole process. She helped, not only with his SAT preparation, but also with his senior year homework, filling out the Common Application, his essays, and even suggesting colleges. I am very grateful to Deirdre for providing outstanding support for my grandson and for making the experience so much less stressful with her caring and enthusiastic encouragement.
