Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Carpenter Tutoring!

+ +

Carpenter Tutoring is a private tutoring service based in Suffolk, Virginia. I offer in-person sessions throughout the Hampton Roads area and remote sessions anywhere in the country. Most of my offerings are one-on-one, and group sessions and classes are also available.

+ +

Prices vary based on content area and delivery method but typically range around $30 per hour for group sessions and $50-60 per hour for one-on-one sessions. That being said, I never want cost to be a prohibitive factor. All prices are negotiable, and I offer flexible payment arrangements when needed. No matter your budget, I am confident that we can find an arrangement that will provide your student services without creating financial strain.

+ +

I invite you to scroll down to learn more about the services I offer, my background, and some of my policies. Thank you for visiting, and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. I would be thrilled to assist you!

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.

+ +

Thank you for considering Carpenter Tutoring.

    • + +
  • Travel policy I travel to locations throughout the Hampton Roads area, includingSuffolk, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Isle of Wight, Newport News, Yorktown, and Williamsburg. If you live outside of these areas but are only interested in in-person appointments, please contact me to make arrangements.
    • + +
  • Remote sessions Remote sessions are conducted from my home in Suffolk. I generally use Zoom, which requires students to download a free client on their computer or a free app on their phone or tablet. I am happy to accommodate if you prefer a different service.
    • + +
  • Cancellation policy Appointments can be cancelled up to 24 hours before the start of the appointment free of charge. Appointments cancelled within the 24-hour window and not rescheduled in the near future will incur a late cancellation fee of $20. Appointments for which no notice of cancellation is given will be charged full price. All cancellation fees will be waived for cancellations caused by emergencies.
