Friendly English tutor

David F
Creative English tutor

So, for the last year, I have been an online English and Creative Writing tutor.All of this coincided with an ADHD diagnosis, at the tender age of 35. I know that people have a tendency to bat around terms like "neurodivergent" and "functioning," and the meanings can seem a little elusive. I was...
