English Study Buddy for Academics
Budget: $2 – $8 USD
I’m working through a demanding course load and need a fluent English partner who can boost my performance across speaking, writing, and reading comprehension. Day-to-day, that means holding short video or voice sessions to polish pronunciation and fluency, reviewing essays or research papers for clarity and structure, and guiding me through complex texts so I can spot themes, tone, and key arguments quickly.
My schedule is predictable, so we can agree on regular slots—ideally several times a week—to keep progress steady. I value constructive, actionable feedback; red-pen corrections are helpful, but I’m even more interested in understanding the “why” behind each suggestion so I can apply it independently.
Deliverables:
• Live practice sessions focused on academic discourse
• Annotated feedback on written assignments (Google Docs or Word track changes)
• Short reading drills with follow-up questions to check comprehension
A background in tutoring university-level students or editing academic writing is a plus, and familiarity with tools like Zoom, Google Docs, or Grammarly will make collaboration smoother. If this sounds like a fit, tell me how you’d structure our first week together and share a sample of your previous feedback on a student text.
