About Deanne

I enjoy helping my students become better communicators, whether that is through their college essay, a high school English paper or a journalism feature story.

I taught journalism and photography at a high school for 33 years. I am certified as an English teacher as well. My most recent tutoring experiences have been with high school students and a pre-med student who needed assistance with her medical school applications.

Teaching combined my desire to work with teenagers and my love for writing, design, journalism and photography. 



I was a journalism teacher for 33 years at a well-respected public high school in Austin. In addition to teaching, I have co-authored a book for high school photographers and their advisers. I have tutored on the side for many years, helping students with college essays, etc.

I LOVE helping young writers find their voices.

High school is my target, but I have tutored college graduates as well. 



A pickle ball-playing friend of mine asked if I could help her daughter-in-law with her medical school applications. The daughter-in-law wanted to polish them and make sure they were error free. I spent about 8 hours with her over several weeks. A few days ago, she texted me to share the wonderful news that she was admitted to her first choice of med schools.
