About Murray
My approach is supportive, encouraging, and individualized. I help students understand what their teachers are looking for, organize their ideas clearly, develop stronger arguments, and improve grammar and style without losing their own voice.
I enjoy working with secondary students, adult learners, and newcomers to Canada who are developing their English writing skills. Whether you need help preparing an essay, understanding a literary work, improving your writing, or building confidence, I will work with you at your own pace and help you achieve your goals.

I am an experienced and highly qualified professional educator with many years of teaching in British Columbia. During my career I taught students from the primary grades through university, and in my final years I worked as a District Literacy Support Teacher, helping classroom teachers strengthen reading and writing instruction. I was seconded to Simon Fraser University in the Professional Development Program, mentoring student teachers as they prepared for a career in education.
I hold a Master’s degree in English Literature and have a passion for helping students become confident, effective writers. I specialize in BC English Language Arts, particularly Composition 11, essay writing, literary analysis, and academic writing.
My teaching areas include:
* BC English 10–12
* Composition 11
* Essay Writing
* Literary Analysis
* Academic Writing
* Adult Education English
* ESL Writing Support
* University and College Writing Skills

I am a recent immigrant to Canada. I am working on getting my Dogwood Certificate and English is my focus. Murray has been instrumental in helping me to succeed in my goals. He has guided and supported me during my studies in English 6, English 10 and now Composition 11. He is highly skilled at assessing my capabilities and understanding where I need to focus my attention in moving forward. His patience, encouragement and professionalism have been invaluable in my achieving my goals. I would recommend Murray to any student who needs a kind, supportive hand in their educational journey.
