Janine: Burlington tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm a writer and tutor who has spent the last three years helping students reach critical academic goals during the pandemic. I have tutored students who have ADHD, helped middle school students improve their writing skills, and have helped elementary school students learn core math skills like multiplication.

I'm a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where I received a Bachelor of Arts in English and International and Global Studies.
As a language arts tutor I created writing exercises that were tailored to a middle school student's academic needs and personal interests. These activities kept the student engaged in a challenging subject. I also taught them core writing skills that improved the quality of their essays and helped them develop a new interest in creative writing.

I have experience working with students who have complex learning needs. As a private tutor and learning assistant, I provided extensive academic support to two students with ADHD for two years. I also worked with a child development specialist to co-create and teach a personalized lesson plan that improved the handwriting skills of a child with special needs.
