Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Carpenter Tutoring!
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
I received my B.A. from The College of William and Mary in 2018
and will receive 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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</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>
<p>
Thank you for considering Carpenter Tutoring.

<strong>Payment methods</strong> I accept payments in-person
through cash or checks made out to Amy Carpenter or through
PayPal. If you select to pay through PayPal, there is an
additional $1.50 processing fee per transaction.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Travel policy</strong> I travel to locations
throughout the Hampton Roads area, including: Suffolk,
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.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Remote sessions</strong> Remote sessions are
conducted from my home in Suffolk. I generally use
<a href="https://zoom.us/">Zoom</a>, 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.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Cancellation policy</strong>
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.

Academic Coaching offers all the benefits of Study Skills and Time
Management appointments plus ongoing planning and accountability
support. As an Academic Coach, I keep track of your student's
upcoming assignments and assessments and help craft a schedule
week to week for them to accomplish their goals. Students come
away as more independent and confident planners and
self-advocates.

After I have worked with your student for a few sessions, you may
request a Parent Consultation during which I will discuss the
strengths and areas for improvement I have seen in your child and
the ways you may be able to help. All parents want to help their
children succeed, but sometimes the way we offer that assistance
is not the way children want to receive it. Learn how to meet your
child where they are and support them in ways which resonate with
their unique needs. These sessions are not tell-alls of what your
student and I discuss during our sessions, as I feel that trust is
central to successful tutoring relationships.
