About Deborah
I am a passionate Canadian nursing educator with a PhD, dedicated to supporting university students in areas like community health, maternal-child health, evidence synthesis, and academic writing. I enjoy helping students improve their writing, gain clarity in their thoughts, and grow confident in their academic journey.
My teaching approach is caring, fair, and reliable. I recognize that mastering writing can be tough, and I always treat students with patience, respect, and high expectations. I particularly enjoy working with students who need assistance with essays, research papers, theses, APA 7th edition, and navigating Canadian academic standards. I also have firsthand experience supporting ESL students and understand the unique challenges of writing in a second language while meeting university standards.
Although my primary expertise lies in nursing and health sciences, my main focus is helping students communicate their ideas clearly, concisely, and effectively across various fields. My ultimate goal is not just to help students improve their current work, but also to empower them to become more independent and confident writers.
Here’s feedback from one student:
“I met with Deborah several times when she was a professor for paper writing and exam support, and it was genuinely one of the most helpful academic experiences I’ve had. She explains ideas in a very clear, approachable way, making you feel comfortable asking questions without any hesitation. Working with her on classwork not only made the material much easier to grasp but also made it less overwhelming and more manageable.
She’s easy to reach, well-organized, and cares that students truly understand the material. Because of our time together, I felt much more confident in class and saw a real improvement in my understanding and my grades. I would highly recommend her to any nursing student looking for a smart, approachable, kind tutor.”

What Sets Me Apart
I was a tenure-track professor with extensive experience teaching hundreds of students in evidence synthesis, community health, research fundamentals, and APA 7th edition academic writing. I have direct experience working with ESL students as a professor, especially with common challenges such as articles and prepositions. Over my 15+ years as a nursing professor, I have worked with numerous students to meet standards of clarity, logic, and academic voice, drawing on my hands-on experience with ESL students, particularly in helping them navigate these challenges.
Who are these lessons for?
University students (BScN, BA, Masters, and PhD) seeking support with essays, research papers, and theses. Ideal for international students adapting to Canadian academic standards, regardless of degree program. While I have particular expertise in nursing and the health sciences, I support clear, concise, and high-quality academic writing across disciplines.

Details
I charge $100/hour because I focus on high-impact, one-on-one coaching that targets exam success and long-term understanding. You’re paying for an experienced nurse educator with 15+ years of university-level teaching who understands how exams, courses, and NCLEX preparation actually work. You’re also paying for the extensive lived experience of a professor who genuinely enjoys working with students and helping them succeed.
As a former university professor with a PhD and years of experience teaching university students to manage heavy workloads, understand complex material, and prepare for high-stakes exams, I can also work with non-nursing students who want to:
Break down difficult course material into clear, step-by-step explanations.
Build strong study systems and exam-preparation strategies.
Learn to think like a student who gets top marks, not just memorize facts.
I charge $100/hour because I focus on deep, personalized coaching that targets understanding, confidence, and performance, not just homework help. My goal is to support students as they move into their futures with the tools they need to navigate the world and flourish as human beings.
