- Simon Rose - Children and Young Adults
- Online Writing Workshops
Give your aspiring young authors the unique opportunity to work
with a published author by employing an online writer in residence,
right in your own home. Many children are interested in writing,
but often they need help to channel their ability in a particular
direction and give them the encouragement they need to move forward.
Having access to professional advice can encourage a child in
their creativity, whatever form that may take.
Through a series of email assignments, we explore where ideas
come from and how to turn them into stories, basic story structure,
plot development, creating characters, developing dialogue and
more to help develop writing ability.
Check out the workshops at simon-rose.com/workshops and contact me directly
by email at sorcerersletterbox@gmail.com for further
details.
For any young authors who have work already completed that they
would like assessing, I offer both coaching services and manuscript
evaluation, details of which are available on my website at www.simon-rose.com.

- Isaura Oliveros - Spanish Tutoring
I am a private tutor for conversational Spanish, being this is
my native tongue. My students' main goal is to practice and improve
their speaking/listening skills, as many of them use any kind
of Spanish language program.
The classes are interactive. Some games and videos are used to
maintain the student interest in the class. The very first class
will help to evaluate the student's Spanish level and expectations,
and then I prepare a study plan which is later sent to parents
for their information and follow up.
Classes are at my place and parents are allowed to stay during
classes if they want to. I am located in Calgary, NW (Beddington).
Fees are hourly and vary depending on number of students attending
the class. I can provide references upon request.

- Michelle Rocha - Tutoring
I have been a private tutor for the past seven years to students
in every grade level, specializing in Math and English. (Lessons
can be provided in both English and French Emersion.) I teach
a wide variety of students, from those who are struggling to
succeed all the way to those students who feel they are not being
challenged. I come to the student's home and provide lessons
in the most personalized way possible. Rates vary for tutoring,
by age/grade and intensity. I enjoy this line of work and have
had repeat clients for the past 5 years.
I have no preference to the area of the city where the student
lives as I am highly organized and work with families to accommodate
extra-curricular activities as well as other academic and personal
obligations. I have references upon request and have taught both
in the private and public school systems at every level. I would
love to hear from you about your child's needs and goals for
the future. Together, we can achieve them. I am young, energetic
and personable. A tutor that your child can relate to and is
comfortable learning with and taking direction from. I do my
very best to foster the most suitable learning environment for
your child and in doing so, my business has been mostly referrals.
Please feel free to contact me directly at any time and I look
forward to hearing from you. I would like to offer my services
to home schooled children.
