B.A. in English · ETSU
Johnson City Native
Hi — I'm Linzee Arias, a Johnson City native with a Bachelor of Arts in English from ETSU and a deep belief that writing doesn't have to be the subject students dread. I'm here to change that.
Whether it's structuring an argument, finding the right words, or understanding why good writing works the way it does — I meet students where they are and build from there. My goal is to make writing feel less like a chore and more like a genuinely enjoyable skill.
I'm also Abby's sister — so between the three of us (Abby for math, Kole for science, and me for English), most of the academic stress at your dinner table is covered.
Writing is more than grammar — it's thinking made visible. These are the areas where I help students find clarity, confidence, and their own voice.
One-on-one depth or the energy of a small writing group — whatever helps your student grow.
I come to you — your home, school, or the Johnson City Public Library. Focused, individualized sessions built around exactly where your student is.
2–6 students working through writing together — collaborative, affordable, and a great way to learn from each other's ideas and drafts.
No hidden fees, no registration costs. Just quality instruction at straightforward prices.
