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&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. -
