There are many reasons why students find it difficult to produce effective prose. Perhaps they struggle to organize their thoughts, to establish a hierarchy of ideas, and to make successful transitions between them. Perhaps they aspire to a mathematical degree of certainty and proof impossible to achieve with words. Perhaps they are reluctant to elaborate. Perhaps they need to review the rules of grammar. Perhaps they lack necessary vocabulary. Perhaps they dislike their English teachers.
At Brownstone Tutors we pride ourselves on our ability to diagnose the causes of a student’s struggles with writing and to prescribe an effective remedy for them. Our writing tutors home in on the reasoning processes that accompany the writing process. They help students to understand and develop the skills required to create cogent, persuasive, and readable prose.
