Passionate About Writing Excellence: Transforming Writers

I have been tutoring emerging writers and speakers for over a decade. I have seen them transform into more confident, accomplished leaders. I have become even more passionate to see more learners experience this type of transformation. I would be honored to help you, also. I use a personalized, step-by-step approach tailored to each learner’s needs. My method includes detailed assessments, goal setting, and consistent feedback to ensure steady progress.

Even though I was always a very good student, I still had extra support from tutors, coaches, and mentors. They helped me emerge as a more excellent and confident leader. I understand there is always room for improvement for anyone. Because of this, I can empathize with and better support other emerging leaders.

Education and Experience: Building Strong Foundations

Despite my degrees and awards, I always have more room to keep growing and improving. Teaching others helps me keep learning, too, especially because the writing standards change over time. So, I provide the most up-to-date information to my learners, based on current standards.

In high school, I was a National Honor Society inductee and earned four-year college scholarships. I received my B.S. degree and then became employed in a teaching role as a certified therapist. All my academic and professional experience has included training, tutoring, and mentoring others, as well as writing, editing, speaking, and presenting.

Successes with Child Learners: Creating Academic Achievers

I tutored and taught children for ten years, because I home-schooled my children. I covered elementary school subjects including reading, writing, math, science, history, and some special interest topics. All of my children were very successful. They remained honor roll students for their entire academic careers after they transitioned from homeschool to public school.

College and Scholarship Essays: Securing Future Success

I also specialized in tutoring them for their college and scholarship application essay writings. My guidance helped all my children to earn full four-year college scholarships. I wrote about them on our Butterfly Homeschool blog, if you would like to learn more about them.

Graduate Level Education: Advanced Skills for Leadership

After my children entered public schools, I earned my M.A. degree and certification in leadership development and coaching. My GPA in business school was 3.8 on a 4.0 scale. I was inducted into Omega Nu Lambda and Delta Mu Delta.

Successes with Adult Learners: Empowering Professional Growth

After homeschooling for a decade and completing graduate school with honors, I have become a more competent and confident teacher. I have seen great results with my learners, both children and adults. Recently, I was one of six trainers in a work-based learning program for six months. I was assigned thirty of our new team members and provided them with:

• an online discussion board via Slack
• answered daily questions and answers
• posted weekly learning objectives based on the client’s curricula
• spoke and taught during weekly video chat presentations via MS Teams
• provided downloadable learning resources
• posted urgent and important updates
• gave one-on-one coaching as needed via MS Teams

Many of my learners won performance awards and bonuses. They shared testimonials stating that I taught them well and helped them build confidence. I have shared some of these testimonials below.

Testimonial From Coaching Client

Angie came to me for financial coaching*, and this is what she shared about her experience. (Her image is used with her permission. Her answers are paraphrased for conciseness.)

• What did you get out of your session with Coach Donna Marie?
  • You showed me that I already have some of this knowledge and understanding inside of me to help me manage my finances better. For the things I need more help with, I realize that I need to tap into my local community for what is already here and that is accessible and affordable for me, instead of assuming that I cannot afford more help. Your suggestions for local and online resources were helpful, and I will look into those now that I am aware of them.
• How would you rate your 90-minute session?
  • 10 out of 10
• Any other feedback?
  • I felt that 90 minutes was not enough time, but I understand that I need to tap into the resources around me in my community for additional help over time.

*Disclaimer: This was a complimentary financial coaching session for this client to support her after she posted a cry for help on the NextDoor App and many community members, including Coach Donna Marie, came to her aid.

Learner Feedback: Ensures Steady Progress

I appreciate every learner’s feedback, whether positive or negative. It helps me keep what is working. It also helps me improve what is not working. My style of teaching is collaborative, so every learner is welcomed to interact with me throughout their learning process. I will also ask each learner for anonymous feedback. This is especially important after several sessions together. It helps me understand how I am doing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Writing

• What is the best tip for improving writing?
  • Read more challenging books or journal articles, and read them often. As you read writings by excellent writers, you will learn how to write better based on their great examples. My favorites are biographies of historical figures and research journal articles. What topics are your favorite to read?
• How can I make sure I am proofreading correctly?
  • My favorite tool is the Editor feature in Microsoft Word. If you’re a student (or teacher), you can get this for a free or discounted price.
  • Many colleges and universities require students to use Microsoft Word as a standard tool to create higher quality documents. Therefore, many schools provide Microsoft software at no additional charge to enrolled students.
• How much does tutoring cost?
  • My rates range from $40 to $70. You can click here to see my profile.
• How do I use who and whom correctly?
  • If you think of them according to sentence structure and parts of speech, it can guide you with understanding better. Also, doing daily challenging reading would also help you to see how professional writers have used these words. Challenging reading could be classical literature, a professional research journal article, or even a biography of a historical figure. Less challenging reading would be news articles and online posts found on blog and social media platforms.
