Joyce: Washtenaw County tutor

Certified Tutor

Hi! I'm Joyce. I graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a degree in Global Health and Environment and a minor in Korean, following the pre-med track. I have over five years of tutoring experience working with students of all ages, from elementary and middle schoolers to high school and college students.

I specialize in ACT tutoring, particularly in english, reading, science, and writing. I've helped students strengthen their foundational skills, boost their test scores, and approach the ACT with confidence. I know how to pair content mastery with proven test-taking strategies. In addition, I support students with college application essays, drawing on my own experience of gaining admission to top schools like WashU and Boston College. I've also guided students in refining their essays and helped them gain admission to schools such as Purdue. Alongside ACT prep, I tutor Korean, where I've worked with students to build strong language foundations and conversational skills.

In addition to private tutoring, I've served as a teaching assistant for college-level Korean courses and have tutored older students looking to strengthen their language skills. I'm passionate about creating a supportive, encouraging space where students feel comfortable asking questions and empowered in their learning. My tutoring style is goal-oriented and engaging, I use active learning strategies and provide clear, constructive feedback to help students retain information and make meaningful progress.

Whether you're looking for long-term academic support or targeted help with test prep or essays, I'm happy to work with you. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
