Kimberly: East Hyde Park tutor

Certified Tutor

As a passionate tutor with bachelor's degrees in criminology and psychology from Pennsylvania State University and currently pursuing a master's degree in forensic psychology at CUNY John Jay College, I specialize in writing and English for middle and high school students. I have previous experience working with these age groups and I understand the unique challenges of connecting with these kinds of students.

My approach is student-centered; I prioritize understanding individual goals and adapting lesson plans accordingly. I believe in fostering a supportive environment where students can express themselves and learn through collaboration. My extensive writing experience, both academically and personally, fuels my dedication to helping students refine their skills, particularly in essay writing and editing. I am committed to making each session engaging while minimizing stress, ensuring that my students achieve their desired outcomes. Most importantly, I promote understanding rather than simply memorizing concepts.
