What Parents Are Saying

My son had a great experience. Ms. Masker helped him achieve much better writing skills, being able to write in an organized fashion and extend his ideas and details. Ms. Masker updated me about his progress after some of the tutoring sessions, which helped me to know the specifics of my son's progress. Thank you, teacher!

GREETINGS!

Meet Your Instructor

Hello There! I’m Kristen. Why did I create this website? Well, my career in education started over 20 years ago, I've worked with a ton of kids, and I know what I'm talking about!

​​

My mission is to show the awesome kids and teens in this world that writing doesn’t have to be a painful process, but rather a more streamlined, non-cryptic, and even joyful process. I also strive to help students deepen their view and understanding of themselves and the world around them as they make connections between what they read and real life.
