"A native of North Carolina, I earned an M. Ed. and my NC teaching license in Special Education from UNCG in 2008. I also hold a B.S. in Mathematics and US History from Randolph-Macon Woman's College (now Randolph College). All through college, I worked as a tutor and have continued to work as a private tutor since graduating. For one semester, I taught in a small charter school where I functioned as the sole mathematics teacher and was responsible for teaching grades 6 to 12. For two years, I worked at a K-6 after school program that focused heavily on homework and success in school. My tutoring experiences span from pre-kindergarten through junior and senior level college mathematics and history courses, as well as adult education. I have taught entire Geometry, Algebra I & II, and Latin I courses as a private tutor as well as worked with both high school and adult students as they prepare for the SAT, GRE, and GED. (One of my tutees was in her mid-50s with only an 8th-grade education when she began working towards her GED, so it's never too late or too impossible to start!)

Most recently, I have been working daily with a second-grade student with severe anxiety and learning needs, teaching Algebra I to a group of homeschooling students, and working with a few college students on entrance exam preparations, including the GED. On top of this, I have various other tutoring clients and lead a small group for pre-teen/early-teen girls. Having completed an MDiv degree, I am also qualified to help those wanting to learn the Bible or Koine Greek (Biblical Greek) or those seeking a mentor for their child.

As one can see, I enjoy tutoring all ages. For me, tutoring is not only a job; it is a hobby, a passion, a lifestyle. I have loved to help others learn since I was little. As a young teenager, I would help my mother home-school my younger brother. Now, I have the expertise to complement my dedication. I feel very strong that children should not merely be trained to pass courses but that they should be taught to" less...
