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. -
