About Sohrab

I have three years of experience teaching General English to non-English speakers, through the ESA (Engagement, Study, Activation) method. During the past three years, I have been a graduate Writing Fellow at the Writing & Learning Centre of ons of the most prestigious colleges in Canada. I also have many hours of professional development courses and workshops on best practices of teaching in my resumé, and my education, experiences, and creative work provide me with the necessary insight for teaching, tutoring, or mentoring academic writing (essays, papers, theses, etc.), professional writing (resumés, cover letters, emails, etc.), and creative writing (poetry, short fiction, rhetorics, etc.).

Educationally, I am a PhD candidate in Comparative Literature at Western University, with an MA in English Literature from the University of Victoria and another Master's degree in Human Resource Management.

Professionally, other than being a teacher in many different capacities, I have been working for the past two years as an Academic/Professional writing tutor at Huron University College's Writing Centre and have taught occasional workshops on creative writing or World Literature. I also worked as a recruiter for about a year, which gives me a good insight into best practices for Resumés, Cover Letters, as well as other administrative documents.

Creatively, I have more than 15 years of background in Poetry and Fiction in my mother tongue, with two full-length collections published, and more than seven years of experience in writing Poetry in English with many publications in literary journals and magazines.

I take pride in my student-oriented teaching method. In my classes, you will be the one who should do the main activity; I am just the facilitator, and I'll be happy to help you find your path through the fascinating world of languages, literatures, and writing conventions. For teaching new material, I use engaging methods including watching movies, playing games, and having fun, alongside the serious material I expect my students to work with. I teach from basic levels (New to writing, specifically for creative writing and poetry) up to the advanced level of English writing conventions (like working on theses together). I use the critical insight I gained into English literary works during my graduate studies and my World Literature knowledge as a poet and writer of a non-English background myself, finishing my PhD dissertation in Comparative Literature.

I mostly teach creative writing as well as post-secondary and professional level. For High school, I only work with students who need help with elective courses like World Literature or Creative Writing, as well as essay assignments only for grades 11 or 12.

Details

**Currently, only 1 time slot is open!**

In-Person Fees:

In-person classes are available in London, Ontario, Canada, in your house or public places with an extra 5$ transportation fee. I rarely accept students in my own place, but if we can come to an agreement about the time, in-person classes in my place only have an extra fee of 2.5$ a session.

Regularity:
Discipline and having a routine are amongst the most important things in learning anything. It also helps me as the teacher to manage my time and allocate it to all my students in an orderly manner. Therefore, my classes are either "Weekly" or "Bi-Weekly", and we cannot have random sessions. For exceptional situations when you cannot attend on schedule, please see the cancellation policy below.

Cancellation Policy:
For every 5 sessions, you can cancel one session free of charge as long as you give me at least 24 hours' notice. If you cancel more than 1 in every 5 sessions or you give notice within 24 hours before the class, you will be charged for the session. Naturally and ethically, the emergency cases are exempted from this rule if any evidence about the emergency is provided.

Essay Revisions:

If you require essay revisions as well as (or instead of) Academic/Creative Writing Tutoring, it will be charged separately, with the rate of 25$/1000 words. I don't write essays or copyedit/proofread them, but I will give line-by-line comments on your own essays, including grammar, punctuation, academic writing rules and styles, as well as some additional ideas you can use to improve your arguments. The same can be said for professional and creative writing texts, while the nature of comments might be slightly different in accordance with the genre.
