About Josie
Hello!
I am Josie, a dedicated educator and a graduate from Iowa State University with a formal degree in English and Communications. My passion lies in helping with the nuances of language. Whether it is elevating your professional career or diving deep into creative writing and literature!
With a strong academic foundation in communication strategies, literary analysis, and writing (both creative and nonfiction), I bring structure and professionalism to every session. I look beyond basic grammar to help you master tone, clarity, and impact so you can communicate with absolute confidence.
I specialize in creating tailored resources that empower learners to find their voice. My goal is that working with me is a partnership with someone who is an organized, encouraging, and authentic professional that is fully invested in your growth. Let's work together to achieve your biggest ambitions!

As an English and Communications graduate, my approach to tutoring is collaborative, organized, and deeply personalized. I believe that mastering language is all about finding your voice, whether you are analyzing a classic text, writing a story, or polishing a professional resume.
Teaching Method & Technique:
I am passionate about sustaining a supportive and interactive coaching style. I will guide you through real-world applications. There will be a heavy focus on structural clarity, tone analysis, and vocabulary expansion, ensuring you understand the why behind every word you write!
Typical Lesson Plan:
Every session is tailored to your specific goals, but a standard 30 or 60-minute lesson generally flows like this:
1. The Warm-Up (5 mins)
2. The Focus (15–35 mins): Deep-diving into your target area—whether that is reviewing a resume draft line-by-line, analyzing a literary passage, or workshopping a piece of your creative writing.
3. The Practical Review (5–15 mins): Real-time edits, feedback on phrasing, and constructive notes.
4. Next Steps (5 mins): A wrap-up of key takeaways and actionable goals for our next session.
Why Me?
With a formal degree in English and Communications, I blend academic expertise with a passion for creative expression and pedagogical resources. I don't just teach conversational English; I help you articulate complex ideas beautifully, confidently, and professionally.
Who These Lessons Are For?
Anyone from intermediate to advanced learners! I specifically would love to welcome:
- Aspiring Writers & Avid Readers: Anyone wanting to explore creative writing or dive into literature discussions.
- Professionals & Job Seekers: Students who need an expert eye to review resumes, cover letters, and professional portfolios to advance their careers.
- Ambitious Communicators: Anyone looking to elevate their expression beyond standard conversational English.
Anything Else?
- Open to sifting through and editing / contributing feedback to essays, articles, etc.
