MS in Education - Counseling Psychology w/specialization area of college students and career development from Purdue University
Pairing a teaching degree with a counseling degree means not only am I able to address academic concerns, but I am also attuned to an individual's emotional development.
I have a varied work background that I believe makes me a perfect tutor for almost anyone of any age. When I wasn't working a paid position, I leveraged my superpowers to help my own children realize their academic and career dreams, and I am very proud of that.
No student is beyond help. Everyone can improve, given the right help. 
Success isn't always about the big wins; it's about the small steps taken every day to get to your goal. 
Learning how to communicate and think is a skill you will take with you for the rest of your life, and it will serve you well. Your subjects are just a way to sharpen those skills.
Tutoring is a relationship built on trust. We have to feel safe enough to be vulnerable about what we do and do not know so we can strategize effectively to meet your goals.
I really enjoy one on one work. I think it is the most rewarding and challenging experience for both student and tutor.
