Hello! I’m Greg — a certified English teacher and creative writing coach with over 12 years of classroom experience. I specialize in helping learners find joy and confidence in writing, especially those who may not see themselves as "writers" (yet!).

In my years of teaching middle school English, I discovered that many students who said they hated writing actually had amazing ideas — they just needed a different way in. That’s why my approach includes creative pathways like fan fiction, comic scripts, worldbuilding, and text-based games. I meet students where they are, and help them turn their interests into meaningful writing.

I now work one-on-one with many neurodivergent learners, including students with ADHD, autism, PDA and dyslexia. As someone who is dyslexic myself, I understand how frustrating traditional writing instruction can be. I use tools like speech-to-text, collaborative brainstorming, and flexible pacing to reduce barriers and build confidence. No red pens here — just encouragement, curiosity, and patience.

In addition to creative writing, I also offer gentle support for school-related English assignments, helping students build the skills they need without added stress.

Outside the classroom, I’m slowly writing a fantasy novel, hiking with my dog Luna, and rewatching my favorite comfort shows.

I’d love to support your learner’s writing journey — whether they’re a reluctant writer, a passionate storyteller, or somewhere in between!
