Introduction

I am an award-winning English Professor who taught thousands of diverse college students at CUNY in Manhattan for ten years. I am also an award-winning, published short story writer and novelist. My writing students of all ages, backgrounds and levels have gotten into competitive Ivy League schools, prestigious Law Schools, have been published in literary journals, have won merit scholarships and excelled in both high school and in the publishing world. I will work with you in all genres, including: Creative Writing, College Essay Writing, Memoir/Autobiography, Creative Nonfiction, etc. Please note: I tutor students in Reading & Writing beginning in middle school through adult learners, from fledging new writers to experienced, published authors. I will only work virtually (via Zoom). Lastly, I am an editor, not a ghostwriter.

Had an amazing time. Amanda was easy to connect with and helped with my speech outline through story telling techniques that made an anxiety provoking task so much more pleasant. Thank you Amanda I learned a lot through your skills and expertise!

This is part 1 of my review. I decided to go with Amanda on a project (editing job is scheduled to start in January) because we instantly connected. Her sample edits were not only spot on but her style really meshed with my personality. Excited to see how we work together. Stay tuned for Part 2.

What I really liked about working with Amanda's Writing, Editing and Consulting business is this: Amanda is not only a published writer and editor with a lot of professional experience, she also has a quality that I've found in few other consultants ... she REALLY knows how to mentor and to teach. She didn't just explain her take on my work to me, she guided me along a path that helped me understand ways I could improve. Before I knew it, I was asking myself questions and intuiting some of the changes I needed to make to reach my goals ... and that gave me a great deal of confidence. Thank you, Amanda!

Amanda’s skill in understanding what elements of writing are missing in an essay/paragraph is quite credible and impressive. As I was applying to Georgetown University, I met with Amanda 2 times and she instantly pointed out what my essay was missing and what needed to be added to make my essay stronger. Within a few days of editing, my essays were ready to be submitted with confidence. Her advice was definitely a playing factor in my acceptance to my dream school.
