About Me - Carpenter Tutoring, LLC

+ +

+ 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. +
