Writing Rules!

Private youth and adult writing Teacher

I specialize in short stories, poetry, personal essays, memoir, and college essays. With my guidance, many of my students have won writing contests and/or published their pieces in literary journals, anthologies, magazines, or e-zines.

Many of my high school and college students

have been admitted to their first choice undergraduate and graduate schools due in

large part to their superlative personal statements and college essays.

Sessions are conducted either in person in

Los Angeles or on the phone/Internet.

"There is no one I trust more with my essays, Len turns average writing into extraordinary works of art. The 1,500 mile gap between us

had no effect on how efficiently we were able to prepare my college application essays. I couldn't be more pleased with them and I'm excited to see what doors they have opened for me. She is truly fantastic."

I have just received word that my writing student Kayla Levy was admitted as a sophomore to University of Michigan's prestigious Ross School of Business, ranked #4 in the country by U.S News and World Report. I helped Kayla with her essays for Ross and am so pleased for her that she has made her dream a reality.

Hooray, Kayla! Congratulations and best wishes for the next step in your successful college career.
