"Hi, I’m Anthony! I have a Master’s of Fine Arts degree in Creative writing and a bachelor’s degree in English. I’ve long adored English and reading especially. I became known throughout high school for the constant stream of books I was reading. This fascination with fiction and the complexities of the English language led to my forays into writing and the ultimate decision to professionally study English in academia for my bachelor’s degree. Here, I took a wide variety of literature, composition, creative writing, and supplementary courses all of which I passed with flying colors and more. After obtaining my bachelor’s degree in 2018, I immediately chose to pursue a Master’s of Fine Arts degree at Oklahoma State University which led directly to more intensive study in literature alongside an intensive regime of many classes focused on creative writing as it relates to fiction and poetry and culminated in 2021 with my work on my thesis exploring death through a lens of humor, a 137-page work called Death Says Hello.

During the course of my graduate degree and to the present day, I have worked as both an English-Composition teacher at a college level and as a tutor in the Oklahoma State University Writing Center. This experience enabled me to assist students in a wide variety of subjects ranging from dissertations to introductory essays to creative works.

In this time, I have learned that at its heart, writing is a process that all students—myself included—refine over time and through constant effort. I always focus first and foremost on establishing understanding with any student I work with so that we may best address whatever writing or English problem they may be facing. This way, students can attain full comprehension of their subjects without blows to self-confidence and self-worth as I maintain everyone can be a writer.

I am always happy to help out and give tips and writing advice to anyone in need of help. Just be sure to schedule lessons and we'll get started!" less...
