About Phoebe

I firmly believe that collaboration is essential to creativity, which is why I love helping others achieve their writing goals!

I have taught a variety of lesson formats over the last decade, such as:
-Classroom teaching (Short Story; Novel Writing; Creative Memoir)
-Small group tutoring (SAT Exam; SAT English Subject Test)
-Private tutoring (ESL; English)
-Mentorship (Low-Literacy)

As a creative writer myself, I am also continuously learning, and some of my post-grad education includes:
-Certificate course in Creative Writing from Wesleyan University
-Six month intensive with NYT Bestselling author Maggie Stiefvater
-Short story and novel courses at Gotham Writers Workshop

You know how you can picture a horse in your mind, but when you try to draw it, it just looks like a weird giraffe?

"Good" writing isn't about grammar rules. It's not about three-act structure, and it definitely isn't just typing words onto a blank page.

Good writing is drawing the horse that looks like a horse. In other words: my goal is to help you write your stories exactly how YOU want them to be written. My job is not to give you universal rules of creative writing; it's to help you find YOUR rules for creative writing.

I offer two types of lessons, and you can mix and match for each session!

1. Project-Based
In these lessons, we'll focus on your works in progress. Whether it's your college essay or the novel you've been trying to finish for six years, I will give you specific feedback on your work, and we'll spend lesson time revising together.

2. Syllabus-Based
These lessons are similar to what you might find in a Creative Writing course. Each lesson will be on a different tool or element of writing, and we'll tailor these based on your own specific needs.
