College Essay Writing
Ready to start the college application process? No matter who guides you through the process, I can help you get the essays in top shape!

ACT/SAT Prep
Is it time to get serious about these rotten tests? Well these session will provide learners with the tools needed to succeed on them. More than rote test practice, we actually learn information allowing for a strategic and confident approach to the English section of the tests.
More Solace, Please!
Sometimes it is not easy to be gifted in this day and age. We can feel like outsiders, different than other people but not always well liked for it. We can be unique in the way we approach the world. We can feel achy to do something, but not have time or place to think about what it is … let alone actually explore it. We can be intensely emotional and easily bored. In these sessions we explore ourselves, our ideas, our interests, and our role in the world.
Moments for Moms
Do something renewing and join me as we read the very best literature. We will entertain real-life conversations inspired by literature but still relevant. Books might include: The Picture of Dorian Gray, Crime and Punishment, Pride and Prejudice, Candide, Siddhartha, The Cather in the Rye, A Prayer for Owen Meany, and anything by Shakespeare.
The Written Word, Refined
For adult writers working on creative, academic, or professional projects, this is structured time to receive editing support, feedback, and submission guidance. Whether you’re polishing a novel, preparing an academic paper, writing a personal statement, or assembling a resume, I’ll help you sharpen your voice, organize your thoughts, and present your work with clarity and confidence.
Customized Tutoring and Mentoring From Ms Massey’s Toolbox
At the heart of my work is customized tutoring—tailored to meet each student’s needs, interests, and learning style. My joy (and my degree) is in literature and the real-life conversations it inspires. Great literature reflects back the truths we all must wrestle with, and the pleasure of debate, evidence, and insightful dialogue is a shared joy for my students and me. I draw from a wide range of advanced tools to support growth, including the “Depth and Complexity” framework—recognized by the Colorado Department of Education to promote higher-order thinking across subjects. For students ready to go deeper, I offer Philosophy for Teens, which uses role-playing and big questions to explore ethics and empathy, as well as Enneagram-based mentoring, a reflective tool that encourages students to better understand themselves and how they engage with the world. Each session is designed not just to improve academic outcomes, but to nurture intellectual curiosity and meaningful self-discovery.
