Why Writing Tutors Are Like Ninjas

Writing tutors are like ninjas in so many ways. First of all, we protect the sacred art of writing from those who wish to tarnish its ways. (It’s night not nite…) We battle incorrectly placed commas. We remind semi-colons that they can’t just go anywhere they want. We fight our way into the deepest, darkest corners of the human mind and won’t give up until we can find a proper topic sentence.

However, we are not secretive ninjas. We are more than willing to guide you in our ways – to teach you our methods so that one day you, too, can be a writing ninja. ‘Tis far nobler for us ninjas to tutor you rather than simply correct your paper.

As the saying goes: “If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for life.” And we don’t want you to starve.
