Award-Winning SSAT Tutors in Chapel Hill, NC

...born, and I was thrust very early into the world of teaching myself. This made me want to continue the legacy and help others the way my family always had. For that reason, I started tutoring as early as I could. I truly feel a part of something greater when I can help others to understand, even if only a small part of something they formerly didn't. I look forward to helping every one of...

...Science and Public History. I also received my Master's in Special Education from Western Carolina University. I am a passionate teacher who believes every student can learn. I believe each student has his or her own unique learning style, and having a teacher who understands this fact will greatly improve a student's success. My experience as a special educator has allowed me to become very adept at helping students find their strengths and using them...

I love teaching and making a difference in students lives. I love knowing that I made a difference to someone, even if it's just one person. My favorite moment is the lightbulb moment; when someone gets what you have been trying to explain! I have been a long term substitute and will begin teaching in the fall. I am a certified elementary teacher. I have worked with students of all ages, but love working with...

As cliche as it sounds, I love learning! I also love watching a student's face when that light bulb goes off and they just "get it." That's why I teach (and why I tutor) - to give students the most chances to have their light bulbs go off so that they can become the best students they can be!... I use a first session to get to know the student, let them get to know me, set expectations, and have them work through a couple of problems to see where they need extra help.

...my teaching career. In that time, I taught 4th grade and Kindergarten. While teaching, I met my (now) husband. We now have two young boys and I have left teaching (at least temporarily) to stay at home with them. I'm really excited to tutor students, while being able to keep staying home most of the time with my kids. When I am not teaching or tutoring students, I love spending time with my family and...

...makes it much easier for a student to approach me with questions or a simple I have no idea whats going on in this math problem. When it comes to standardized testing, I firmly believe that test-taking is a skill in and of itself the SAT, for example, tests ones math and verbal abilities, but it also tests your ability to take the SAT, which is a skill that can be taught and practiced. Outside...

...different kinds of students in a range of subjects, but also designing and culling curriculum that will suit each student’s specific needs. In college I double majored in Chinese Language and Culture and Religious Studies. My studies of Religion have given me a strong background in the humanities, textual analysis, and essay writing. I have been most passionate about my Chinese studies. I spent a year studying abroad and doing research in Yunnan Province during...

...grade Literature and Language Arts classroom in West Seattle. I graduated from Duke in May, and am looking for part time work before beginning graduate school at the University of Washington. I love reading, writing and working with kids. I taught Kindergarten in Kolkata, India, worked in a 2nd grade classroom in Durham and now work with middle schoolers full time. I am excited to get to know students and help them reach their full...

...that subject you're struggling with, and insight into what sort of a thinker and learner you are. I've been a teacher for eight years, so I have worked with students to help them through all sorts of challenging concepts. My teaching style is flexible: I have training in the Montessori style and plenty of experience prepping students for end-of-grade tests. I will work with you on specific test-related strategies if that's what you need, and...

I have over 20 years of experience working with children, from 2 to 20. I have a California teaching credential and have had experience teaching math, language arts, study skills, and organizational skills. I enjoy working with students of all ages and I especially love it when I can help them gain confidence in their ability to learn. I love watching the "aha!" moments for my students. I look forward to working with your student!
