About Donovan

With a Canadian college education and years of global experience in journalism, I bring a unique and practical approach to tutoring. As the Editor-in-Chief of a respected international news organization, I’ve spent my career crafting impactful stories and guiding professional writers. I’ve also had the privilege of teaching journalism at universities worldwide, helping students build confidence in their writing, critical thinking, and communication skills. English is my first language, and I am fluent across all forms—spoken, written, and reading—making me a strong and reliable tutor for anyone looking to master the language or sharpen their journalistic voice.
