Debbie S.

Private tutor in Quincy, MA

Education

* Bachelor's degree with high honors (magna cum laude) from Harvard in Social Studies * Master's degree in public health (MPH) from Boston University, concentrating in health policy (health reform, health care access and costs) * elected to Phi Beta Kappa at Harvard * wrote 200+ page undergraduate thesis that involved data analysis and oral history interviews as well as historical and sociological research

Experience

In writing and in teaching, I focus especially on how to make things clear even if they initially seem complicated. * Editing: A careful editor, I'll help you to produce writing that is straightforward, concise, well-organized, and engaging, with proper English grammar and syntax. * Tutoring: For 15+ years, I've tutored master's-level and some undergrad students in health care finance. I also have tutored junior high math and high school journalism. I enjoy helping college, graduate, and high school students discover that you can indeed understand coursework that seemed confusing and intimidating! I have also worked with international graduate students to help polish their written English and improve their English writing skills as they prepare papers, resumes, etc. * Teaching: I've taught and been a teaching assistant for master's-level courses in health policy and management at Boston University, and guest lecturer in several health policy courses there and elsewhere. * Writing: Experienced author/co-author of many academic research reports, op.ed. articles (published in the Boston Globe, Newsday, and more), news stories, testimony, grant applications, press releases, organizing leaflets, and fact sheets. * SAT verbal 780, math 770 I would be happy either to meet in person or to talk by phone. I can review writing that is emailed to me and then discuss it by phone or email. (Skype sessions may also be arranged.)
