About me
I have dedicated my teaching career to assisting students with their writing assignments, particularly Capstone writing assignments and thesis papers that require students to integrate various elements of their topic into a comprehensive research paper, demonstrating an in-depth understanding of that topic. After working together students feel confident and excited about their research experience.
