Meet your tutor!
Hi, I’m Danae!
Here, all first drafts are good.
With a BFA in creative and professional writing and over five years of tutoring and editing experience, I’m excited to share my passion for writing with you.
My goal is always to help my clients improve their writing. However, my true passion lies in providing a safe place for writers to explore their strengths, make mistakes, and gain more confidence in their writing skills.
I started A Latte Drafts Tutoring to meet writers exactly where they are at. Whether you’re a sophomore struggling with how to start a research paper or an aspiring author wanting feedback on some short stories, I’m ready to help!
Let’s fuel your passion for writing or just make that research paper a little less daunting. Ready to get started?
“I had the most wonderful experience with Danae!”
Not only was the process just what I needed but they made sure the language felt authentic to me and was exactly my request before solidifying and moving forward. Such a positive experience and I will definitely be using for all of my language crafting and recommend to anyone for tutoring needs! I also live in California and the session was easy and online.
