About Ernestine
Hi! Ernestine here. One thing most of my friends and acquaintances know me for is being the one person to give you objective feedback. I was called a "destructive critic" at one point in my three-year writing and editing career. Why is this, you may be wondering? Well, it's because I am objective with my teaching. Feelings will get you nowhere when you are trying to learn a potentially life-changing skill to boost your income flow. If your skills are not top-notch, I will not sugarcoat things and let you down softly, but I will give praise where it is due. Rest assured though—this doesn't mean I will kill your spirit. It instead implies that I will be extremely honest with you so as to ensure that you know what your strengths and weaknesses are, and then help you work towards eliminating those weaknesses. When you do well, you will reap praises from me. This, you can trust. For any student willing to accept my destructive yet witty teachings, welcome aboard.

I hope to help aspiring writers and/or authors perfect their creative writing and English skills, because fresh takes and perfect grammar is the key to literary success.
My teaching methods will require students to:
- Read articles or short stories I recommend and give me their honest feedback about them.
- Write a short piece every week, as this will enable me gauge their creativity and ability to engage.
- Read a piece I write/have written to tell me the lessons they learned from it.
- Engage in each other's creative works and give feedback.
- Review a chapter of English grammar books or articles and summarize their learned lessons.
- Schedule one-on-one Google Meets sessions for creative discussions and idea tossing.
My lessons last for 1-2 hours. Any beginner or intermediate level writer, be you a content writer or author striving to be more creative in your writing or perfect your English and punctuation skills, is welcome.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Ernestine's skills from freelance editing and writing came from years of dedicatedly listening to English classes in high school, reading any book her hands touched (including the dictionary), and watching YouTube videos of people speaking different English accents. Ernestine's broad experience in speaking, reading, and writing English is something you would want to take advantage of. Like her teachers did/do, she will break down her lessons into tiny bits so native and non-native speakers alike can understand them. If you're interested in learning grammar, Ernestine is your guy. Do not miss out on this platform when you have the best.
I have known Ernestine for a while now and I can confidently say that she's beyond qualified to be an English tutor. I honestly don't think I've met someone as good as her when it comes to English Language, I'm saying this because I've seen it. She knows her way around it and she can be trusted.
She is a patient and kind tutor. She is intelligent and trustworthy. I've enjoyed working with her in time past.
