Award-Winning Social Studies Tutors serving Woodbury, MN

A good tutor is someone who understands your learning needs and desires, and adapts their teaching style to meet those needs. Learning should be an interactive process, with the tutor and the one being tutored offering equal conversation and interacting in meaningful ways together. The best tutors are able to balance the need for specific content mastery and the desire to instill a love for learning as a general concept.

I'm an English Literature Major and Creative Writing Minor. My strengths are essay writing, college-level reading and writing, GRE verbal/analytical writing prep, and conversational Spanish. I believe that tutoring should be collaborative and that the tutor and client need to work together for the client's success. I also believe that all tutoring should build upon previous knowledge. I look forward to working with you!

As a tutor, I strive to put scaffolding in place so that students can succeed on their own. That means my approach adapts to a student's individual strengths, interests, and goals.

In my experiences as a learner and a teacher, I have seen how small strategies make a big difference, and I am excited to work with you to achieve something big, piece by piece.

Having tutored for over two years, I take pride in my ability to meet students where they are in their understanding and present material in ways that are tailored to each student.

...sometimes be a matter of explaining things different ways until one of them sticks. The abstractness and hierarchical nature of math is a challenge for tutor and student alike, but it is also one of the most satisfying to work on.
