About Derek
I am a published writer of creative short fiction who is looking to share his passion for the craft with the next generation of aspiring writers. I am a super friendly educator who has knowledge about what it takes to get your fiction published at competitive online journals. I have an abundance of useful tips and tricks which can help writers develop convincing three-dimensional characters and exciting, well-structured plots.
Currently I specialize in flash fiction, short fiction, and genre novel writing.
I have been nominated for the James Kirkwood Prize for Creative Writing at UCLA Extension's famous writers program. My work has appeared in such online journals as Monkeybicycle.net, Jersey Devil Press, and No Extra Words.
I got my start working as a reading coach for Americorps in Brockton, MA. I went on to work as a writing instructor in various after school programs and camps.
I have a BA degree in Communications from Rowan University. I have also worked as a freelance copywriter and copyeditor for four years, during which time I developed impeccable grammar skills!

I am very kind and patient, believing that a student must learn at his or her pace, and my students often find that I have a great sense of humor.
Over the course of my career I have tutored K-12 students from a wide variety of backgrounds and starting-points.
Make sure the tutor has a relevant background to your subject of need--preferrably some kind of paid experience working as a professional in the field.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Anything that comes to mind! The only "bad" questions are those that are left unasked. Pick your tutor's brain!
