Blitzing COVID


 

Well, here we are. Right where we had hoped we wouldn’t be.

The new school year is beginning, and COVID has once again reared its ugly, dangerous, and too often deadly head.

To make matters more confusing and contentious, a battle is in progress over masks: Should our children be compelled to wear masks in school, should masks be optional, or should they be prohibited altogether?

For parents of junior high and high school students who are concerned about their daughters’ and sons’ safety in academic situations, I am offering small-group online instruction designed to help us through the current COVID blitz.

I am a writer and a teacher with a good many years of experience in both professions. I am primarily a writing mentor, but I am also an experienced teacher of both history and literature.

My rates are very reasonable, and I have never turned a student away for financial reasons. Nor will I ever.

If you believe your child or children would benefit by working with me – please contact me either at johnoverbeck42@gmail.com, or at 513-476-4963, and we will have a conversation.

I have in the past worked to coordinate my work with school curricula in such a way that full academic credit is given for work I do.

If you believe I can be of assistance to your child or children, I look forward to hearing from you.

In the next few days I will post some comments I have gotten through the years for my work with students.
