About Neil
I started my career as a High School English and Drama teacher then left academia to pursue an acting career. For the past 35 years I have been a mainstay in Canadian Film and Television, winning a Canadian Comedy Award in 2008 and receiving a Daytime Emmy Nomination in 2021. For twenty of those years I also wrote an award-winning, syndicated humor column for Metroland Papers. I have published two children's books, one book of verse for children, an anthology of my column writing and a humorous memoir of my journey through colorectal cancer. I am also a motivational speaker. I'm easy going, upbeat and completely onside with how heartbreakingly frustrating the process of writing can be at times, yet how wonderfully rewarding the process ultimately is. I'd love to help you become the best writer you can be.

As an actor and a writer, clear, concise and creative communication means everything to me. Working together, we will walk and talk our way through your writing project, highlighting what works and tweaking what needs help. I am available to work collaboratively in this format or am equally happy to take finished work and edit/proof it to perfection. Eager to work with any written endeavour from High School level to aspiring novelists, screenwriters and essayists.

Neil is a wonderful teacher. He is patient and able to tailor his teachings to the individuals learning type. I have benefited from his guidance many times from school material to work related material and everything in between.
Neil is a great tutor! Super responsive to any questions, really flexible, and generally just very pleasant. He also has an incredible amount of experience across a lot of different subjects, so I found he was able to offer a lot of interesting and varied perspectives on my work. I would definitely recommend him!
Neil is a skilled and patient teacher. He is thoughtful and brings a good sense of humour when working together. This makes it SO much more enjoyable. Learning and having fun… perfect mix if you're looking to have a great experience! Neil is a great communicator and explains concepts really easily. He is certainly a fountain of wisdom when it comes to the English language. I highly recommend him without reservation. Book him now!
The secret sauce for any good teacher is the ability to engage students and keep their attention. Neil excels at this by making the source material not only relatable but enjoyable. Students learn quicker and retain more information when they are having fun. I highly endorse Neil and envy any student lucky enough to be in his class.
I have known Neil Crone for over 40 years. He is smart, passionate,funny and a wonderful teacher. I should know. I was the Artistic Director of the Second City Training Centre for 13 years.
To be a good actor, one needs to be able to communicate on a profound level; to reach into places within all of us that may have hitherto been unreachable. My special friend Neil does just that. He's smart, he's knowledgeable, he's understanding. He "get's it". On top of that he's damned funny, a vital and relaxing element of any teaching process. Not only will you learn from Neil, you'll like him. I've known it for 30 years. You'll know it instantly.
I have known Neil for almost thirteen years. I met him through my partner, who has known him for over forty years. Neil was kind and welcoming from the start, having invited us to his home for dinner shortly after I started dating my partner.
Over the years we have engaged in many activities together including kayaking, hiking, and weekend retreats. Whenever there is anything which is new to me or anyone else, Neil is always helpful in instucting with patience and understanding. Neil is well educated and well read; an avid reader who enjoys all genres of books. He has also raised two very intelligent and gifted sons.
I highly recommend Neil as an educator and as a person in general.
Neil is the type of teacher that will effectively communicate with his students his knowledge, patience and humour, so classes will be engaged and students will be interested in learning from him.
Neil is an awesome teacher. He's really clear with his help and I found myself learning much faster than with so many previous teachers. Plus, he's just a really nice person who genuinely wants you to do well. I would highly recommend him!
Neil's friendly and engaging approach to delivering all types of content promotes active learning. His natural ability and personality are well leveraged to create a learning environment that is effective, efficient and fun. You'll only need one presentation or class to see this for yourself. I highly recommend Neil with full confidence.
Animated, kind, patient, considerate and creative, he does it all. Mr. Crone is passionate in both the endeavours of learning and the immersive world of literature and, in teaching, adding his own delightful interpretations to both. Having been homeschooled myself, having Neil as one of my two teachers did a world of good and I am grateful for the experience. He is understanding, attentive and inspiring in his own unique way.
One time a snow fort collapsed on me and he dug me out instantly. He's incredibly reliable and caring and any student would be lucky to have him as their teacher.View more recommendations
