Fine print…

I work intentionally with each client. Scheduling and focus is individually designed.

Preparation needed prior or in between sessions as a means to facilitate an assignment is billed at the hourly rate.

Editing prior or in between sessions is billed at the hourly rate.

Please note services secured within two weeks of a student’s deadline incur a price $25 hr increase due to time constraints.

Cancellation policy:

Mistakes happen and things come up for both of us. So I offer a one time grace for a late cancelation. But please, if you need to cancel our scheduled time, do so 24 hrs in advance to avoid a 50% fee (after the 1st oops time).
