- School is tricky, and there is no universal pathway to success. 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&amp;M in 2020. As an undergraduate, I worked and was trained
- as a tutor at W&amp;M's peer tutoring center, the TutorZone. During
- this period, I conducted over 150 one-on-one appointments with W&amp;M
- students in 26 different content areas. I earned lifetime Advanced Tutor
- Certification, the highest level W&amp;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.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- I loved getting to work with the 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.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- 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.

-
- <p>Thank you for considering Carpenter Tutoring.</p>
