I started - Carpenter Tutoring for those seeking a little help finding their way. -- I received my B.A. from The College of William and Mary in 2018 and received - my M.Ed. from W&M in 2020. As an undergraduate, I worked and was trained as a - tutor at W&M's peer tutoring center, the Tribe TutorZone. During this period, - I conducted over 150 one-on-one appointments with W&M students in 26 - different content areas. I earned lifetime Advanced Tutor Certification, the - highest level W&M can grant, through the College Reading and Learning - Association, and I was trained as a time management consultant. I took on - leadership roles within the TutorZone until I was working alongside its - director. As a graduate student, I became one of the Graduate Assistants - helping oversee the TutorZone as well as an academic coach to students with - high need for academic support. -- I loved getting to work with the Tribe TutorZone tutors, but I realized that - I missed being the tutor. There's just nothing like watching the light bulb - of understanding go off or seeing students who had struggled with material - master it! With that realization, I decided to dedicate my life to my passion - -- helping students of all ages learn, succeed, and believe in themselves. -- My instructional approach focuses on meeting students where they are and - supporting them through any hesitations or discomforts from which academic - difficulties may arise. Whether your student only has to brush up on a few - concepts or is resistant to completing coursework, I will come to each - session with patience, understanding, and just the right amount of - discipline. I truly believe that excellent educational relationships begin - with mutual respect, and I work to build meaningful relationships with all of - my clients. -- Thank you for considering Carpenter Tutoring. diff --git a/_data/content/blurb.yml b/_data/content/blurb.yml deleted file mode 100644 index 3daa00d..0000000 --- a/_data/content/blurb.yml +++ /dev/null @@ -1,3 +0,0 @@ -- Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Carpenter Tutoring! -- Carpenter Tutoring is a private tutoring service based in Suffolk, Virginia.
