Austin-dwelling essayist, poet, and creative thinker offering homework support and writing lessons.

About the lesson

My philosophy is all about listening. We are all gifted with such unique brains and it's my job to figure out how each student learns best.

I have worked with students for a total of about 6 years. I've also had the honor of helping high school students finesse their application essays through the years so they can attend the school of their dreams.

Everybody has a story. Even the smallest elements hold a history that's worth telling in order to give a student's application a breath of life.

A former actor, I refuse to be boring! I let my goofy sense of humor pave the way for genuine connection so I can do my best work (and, in turn, so can my students).

In addition to tutoring, I am a freelance writer and poet. My memoir essays and poems have been published in various literary journals around the US and overseas.

I'm confident my creativity and literary prowess can help give students the tools and confidence they need to develop their own unique voice on and off the page.

About Brandyce

I am a published poet and writer who has helped elementary, middle, and high school students develop into independent thinkers, skilled writers, A-students, and voracious readers. I have worked in schools and community enrichment centers as well as in public libraries or students' homes for small group or one-on-one sessions. My approach is accepting and rigorous with necessary splashes of humor to share the spunk and get students stoked to meet the challenges at hand. I want to foster an appreciation of words in my students and light that I-love-this-I-can-do-this spark that they can ride throughout their academic careers and future aspirations.
