what DO Others Say about Susan's COACHING?

  • Reviews...
    • In just a few hours, Susan taught me more useful tips for improving my writing than I had received during 12 years of high school, college, and grad school. And she made it interesting and invigorating instead of dull and tedious.
    • Susan didn’t tell us, but showed us how to show, not tell.
    • The most exciting hour about the English language in the 50 years of my existence.
    • Susan is an awesome instructor—she could probably talk for 3 hours about watching paint dry and I’d still be hanging on every word.
    • As a result of Susan’s presentation, my perspective has changed. There is no question that I will be a better editor and writer.
    • Susan is so dynamic, funny, and such an expert. She was also very helpful individually with my book pitch. She is a star!
    • Susan hit the weakest part in my repertoire. It was eye opening.
    • Best session on writing improvement that I have ever heard.
    • Outstanding points and writing coach! Would love to name her the "Author Whisperer" but I can't imagine her whispering. She gets her ideas across loud and clear!
    • The presentation style was perfect, the content was just right, and the “take home” information was exactly what I was seeking. Exceeded all my expectations!!
  • More reviews...
    • Susan is highly experienced and knows what she’s talking about. Her examples and analogies are exceptional. I had many "aha" moments!
    • Susan brings so much excitement to her talks. My writing is going to improve as a result, and even more so, I now have an easier way to help my students improve their writing.
    • My most empowering experience at the conference was getting to know and learn from Susan Aiello. Her ability to speak about writing as a process gave me confidence that "if am passionate about my writing, willing to structure my writing time, strengthen my knowledge of writing techniques, and allow myself to write freely in a first draft," I can succeed.
    • I use the knowledge I carried away from Susan’s talks every time I sit down to write.
    • Susan is so knowledgeable and so relatable. She brings writing alive!
    • Susan is dynamic, direct, and a totally positive force in support of participants!
    • I was assigned to Susan Aiello's writers workshop...and how lucky I was. Dr. Aiello not only read my 5-page writing sample before the workshop, she wrote comments throughout the entire piece. During the meeting, she worked closely with each participant. She was so very supportive, even when she pointed out serious deficiencies. Consequently, we all began to share with one another in an atmosphere of sincerity.
  • And more reviews!
    • Excellent review of key steps in publishing. I will forever be grateful for Susan’s personal one-on-one support of my writing ideas and abilities.
    • Based on Susan’s comments, I changed course and submitted a proposal for a book about the history of the discovery of vitamins. And it was accepted!
    • I found Susan’s course to be THE highlight of my conference, and I'm so glad I took it. I cannot tell you how mind-blowing it was to finally have these guidelines laid out for me. No freaking wonder I've never been able to get it straight! Now finally I know why I've always been confused, and more importantly now I know how to look up the right usage. Ye gods, she has made my life so much easier!
    • My favorite lecture ever! A MUST for every writer. Great pacing, recaps, examples, and summary! A++
    • Susan is a content expert and an effective leader. Her approach is refreshing and lends appeal to the adult learner. I learned a lot more than I expected. Plus, she makes it fun!
    • Susan unraveled the often confusing rules of English, making them easier to understand, remember, and apply.
    • Best workshop I have ever taken! Should be required for all writers and editors. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
    • Love her talks, Susan rocks!
