All things reading and writing, with respect, warmth, and a sense of humor

Looking for someone to make basically anything related to English a little less painful? Need to write a killer college essay?

I'm Julia - or JLaw, as my students call me - I've been teaching high school (and college!) English since 2010, and have also helped countless students craft almost every kind of college essay you can think of, always ensuring that your authentic voice is what tells your true story.

​

My years of expertise include working alongside students with language-based learning differences, or with executive function challenges. I come with patience and respect for all kinds of learners - everyone deserves a tutor who understands them!

 

​

If you think you don't "get it," I can help you get there. If you think you can't make a coherent argument, I can prove that you can. And if you think you're "not interesting enough," I'll show you precisely how cool you are.

Testimonials

​Julia helped alleviate so much stress around my college essays and I can’t thank them enough for that. I ended with essays that not only were good from a technical standpoint, but ones that felt like me. They weren’t just essays trying to fit certain criteria, they were essays I enjoyed writing.

[JLaw]'s unwavering guidance, support and encouragement has made me into a much better writer and reader than I ever thought was possible. [They've] pushed me to reach new goals I never thought I’d be capable of doing. Analyzing a book used to be my biggest weakness and fears when facing English, but I can now proudly reflect on what I’ve learned and say it is one of my best skills
