“The expert in anything was once a beginner.” – Anonymous
Joanna Haeck, M.A.
Background
I have a Master’s in English (Rhetoric and Composition), and a Bachelor’s in Creative Writing, both from Western Washington University. I taught English at the college level for almost 30 thirty years.
Expertise
My area of expertise is writing, reading, and study skills, and the bulk of my teaching experience has been at the college level. I began working with primary and secondary students a few years ago, including ELL and special needs students.
Personalized Lessons
My lessons are tailored to the individual student, no matter their skill level. I bring a caring, friendly, personal approach to building each student’s confidence and proficiency.
