Award-Winning Reading Tutors
serving Oklahoma City, OK

I am an undergrad student at Agnes Scott college, currently pursuing bachelors in neuroscience and biomedical engineering. I grew up in a STEM focused household, and though I've always been inclined in those fields I've also always loved making art in whatever way I can.

I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma. I earned my Bachelors degree in Letters with a focus on the Classics, and am in the midst of applying for graduate programs in the field of Comparative Mythology. While attending university, I was continually leading study groups and providing writing and editing help for my peers. My education before college was rather unorthodox, in that I was homeschooled by my mother, who brought in students who needed more individual attention than was being provided for them in public or even private school. Having been educated in such an atmosphere through grade 12 has blessed me both with the experience of having watched quality tutoring occur every day and of tutoring others from a very young age. I have always found immense joy in tutoring. Helping others learn is a wildly rewarding pursuit. I believe that tutoring is essential because every individual learns differently - every brain moves in intricate and astounding ways - and trying to educate every student in the same manner can end in frustration and disappointment. My favorite subjects to tutor are Writing, Essay Editing, Reading Comprehension, and English, because I find these are the subjects which are easiest for me to connect with emotionally, and thereby elicit a response from a student and get them more interested and involved.

I am the only person who has earned a doctoral degree in the Bassoon. When I began teaching in schools, my first job was teaching Elementary Music and Gifted and Talented classes. I then taught fifth grade Social Studies and moved on to high school Biology and middle school Science. I have also been a professor of music at Oklahoma City University for over ten years. I'm certified to teach Math, Science, and Music, but I also have a passion for History, World Cultures, Study Skills, and Writing. I have been teaching private bassoon and oboe lessons for 20 years and feel very blessed to be both a professional performer and educator. My goal as a teacher is to empower my students to become lifelong learners and lovers of knowledge. I love to travel, and have been to all of the lower 48 states, as well as many different countries. I love sports, jogging, horseback riding, and cooking. I find it especially enjoyable to bring my adventures back to my students and encourage them to go make their own throughout their lives!

I am very active. I love working out and playing sports. Throughout high school, I played basketball, ran cross country, and rode horses. Now, I lift weights and do personal research in nutrition and athletics. I hope to one day combine my love of medicine and overall health in order to help my patients one day.

I am not working with students, you could find me: in the kitchen, cooking foods from around the world (with names I can hardly pronounce); in front of the computer, playing video games and listening to music; or outside, hiking/gardening/swimming/reading on a hammock (weather permitting!) I love learning new languages and studying new subjects.

I am not studying or reading for personal enjoyment, I am often either writing or sharing rich conversation. Having specialized in philosophy of art, I have a passion for music and visual art and am enlivened by the artistic culture of Oklahoma City.

Struggling readers often aren't missing intelligence — they're missing strategies for breaking a text apart. Isabel teaches concrete techniques like annotation, context-clue vocabulary building, and identifying an author's purpose so that students become active readers instead of passive ones. Her English Composition background means she understands how texts are constructed, which makes her especially effective at teaching others how to decode them.

Growing up surrounded by agriculture texts — crop manuals, livestock journals, extension bulletins — taught Amber that reading isn't one skill but a dozen, shifting depending on whether you're absorbing a narrative or extracting instructions from a technical document. She brings that practical range to her sessions, walking students through how to adjust their approach based on what they're actually reading, from fiction passages to informational texts. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am able to tutor in a range of subjects including Statistics, English, Science, Social Sciences (psychology is my favorite), and Math. I have experience working with students of all ages, including students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia. I am also able to help with test prep for the SAT or GRE.

I am a graduate of Pepperdine University and am currently pursuing a PhD in International Relations at UNT. I have always had a passion for learning and knowledge, and I hope to impart that passion to others through tutoring. My academic interests include languages, politics, and literature. In my free time I enjoy to read, watch films, and travel when I can. I spent a year studying in Lausanne, Switzerland.

I am a student at Columbia University studying History & American Studies! While in high school, I completed the International Baccalaureate program and took various Advanced Placement courses. At Columbia I have worked with various public defense organizations as an advocate, investigator, and research assistant. I also volunteer as a tutor on campus, in the New York community, and even on Rikers Island. I am passionate about helping students from all backgrounds develop their writing, reading, presentation, and test-taking skills that will translate to all aspects of their education!

I'm another life long learner. I strive to assist learning in social encounters. Growing up with a family of school teachers and public school professional development figures, I have developed an interest in tutoring, research, and writing. After tutoring for about two years with Upward Bound and years of part time work with the educational development organization ALCA, I am now researching and writing a book on online political discourse, and wish to work improving my ability to help others.

I am currently a rising Junior at the University of Oklahoma, majoring in Biology on a Pre-medical track. I am on a full academic scholarship and an active participant in the honors program. My enjoyment of learning for its own sake has been a main driver of my academic success. I approach life with a smiling, energetic attitude, a mentality that carries over to my tutoring. Outside of school I love being active and outside as much as possible. My best days are filled with music, friends, and new experiences.

Strong reading isn't just decoding words on a page — it's knowing how to identify a main idea, make inferences, and connect what the text says to what it means. Natalie tailors her approach to the reader's level, whether that's building fluency with a second-grader or tackling complex nonfiction with a high schooler. Her own daily reading load as a Pre-Law student keeps her sharp on comprehension strategies she can pass along.

I am currently pursuing a Bach. in Aerospace Engineering. I have always been very good at math in fact there were some grades where I feel I was teaching myself.I have never tutored for money before. This is not to suggest that I have never tutored because I have tutored Algebra 1, AP Calculus AB, AP Physics 1 , and ACT. If you are interested I hope we can work something out!

I am a senior at the University of Oklahoma studying industrial & systems engineering. While I love my major, I'm also involved on campus outside of the engineering department, serving as an event chair under Campus Activities Council, working with orientation & transfer programs, and volunteering as a mentor for middle school students at Loveworks Leadership!

I'm Joe! I'm a first year economics and international area studies major at the University of Oklahoma. My favorite show is Rick and Morty, and my favorite book is The Things They Carried, by Tim O'Brien.

I am able to edit and help in the writing process of essays.

I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma. I received by Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering. I have mostly tutored privately on my own time in one on one sessions. I mostly enjoy helping others with math and science related problems. Education is necessary to improve life and I want others to realize this. In my spare time I enjoy thought provoking literature.

At Penn State's Writing Center, Hannah worked with everyone from non-native English speakers to honors students, and the common thread was always reading comprehension — understanding what a text says before you can respond to it. She teaches active reading strategies like annotation, summarization, and identifying an author's purpose, skills that pay off across every subject a student encounters.

Before law school, Tiffany might have called herself a strong reader — after it, she understood what active reading actually means: annotating for structure, questioning the author's choices, and tracking how an argument develops across pages. She teaches these same strategies to students working on comprehension and critical analysis, breaking passages into manageable pieces so the main idea and supporting details become obvious.

Poetry and nature literature were the texts that first made Emma want to teach — she built weekly reading-centered lesson plans around them for students from preschool through 12th grade at Chautauqua Institution, adapting how she approached a piece depending on whether a seven-year-old or a teenager was sitting across from her. That range, plus her Education minor at Cornell, means she can adjust quickly between a student who needs help retelling a simple story and one who's learning to track theme across a full novel. Rated 5.0 by students.

A PhD in Comparative Human Development at the University of Chicago means Gabriel spends his days reading across disciplines — literary analysis, social science research, ethnographic case studies — and synthesizing arguments that don't always speak the same language. He brings that cross-disciplinary fluency into reading sessions, teaching students how to identify what a text is doing structurally before worrying about what it's saying on the surface. Rated 5.0 by students.

Strong reading comprehension isn't just decoding words — it's learning to track an author's argument, distinguish main claims from supporting details, and make inferences from context. Chloe's linguistics minor trained her to analyze how language works at a structural level, which she translates into practical strategies for annotating, summarizing, and engaging with complex texts.

Struggling readers often aren't lacking intelligence — they're missing a strategy for pulling meaning from dense or unfamiliar texts. Meghan teaches active reading techniques like annotation, context-clue vocabulary building, and identifying an author's argument before getting lost in details. Her PhD work in American Literature at UConn means she's spent thousands of hours doing exactly this kind of close, purposeful reading.

Strong reading comprehension isn't just about understanding vocabulary — it's about tracking an author's argument, recognizing tone shifts, and distinguishing main ideas from supporting details. Tom, who scored a 1520 on the SAT, applies the same close-reading techniques from his literary training to help students decode everything from standardized test passages to dense nonfiction.

Strong readers don't just decode words — they predict, question, and make inferences as they move through a passage. Kirstie builds those active reading habits by teaching annotation strategies and context-clue techniques tailored to each student's level. Her liberal arts training means she's comfortable working with fiction, nonfiction, and everything in between.

A Princeton education heavy on analytical writing and psychology research papers means Margaret spent four years reading texts where every claim had to be traced back to its evidence — a habit she now teaches to her own students. She breaks down passages by showing readers how to identify what an author is arguing, spot the supporting details that matter, and filter out the filler. Her 4.9 rating and 1530 SAT reflect the kind of precise, deliberate reading she brings to each session.

Strong reading comprehension comes down to active engagement — knowing how to identify an author's purpose, track key details, and make inferences without overthinking. Aditi teaches specific annotation strategies and question-attack techniques that give students a repeatable system for understanding both fiction and nonfiction passages.

A Latin American History degree from Duke and a law degree from UNC Chapel Hill means Jean has spent years reading across two very different disciplines — parsing primary sources full of cultural context, then pivoting to legal briefs where every clause carries weight. That range shows up in how she teaches comprehension: breaking a passage into its moving parts, identifying what the author is actually claiming versus what's just background, and building the kind of deliberate reading habits that transfer from literature excerpts to standardized test passages.

Strong readers don't just decode words — they track how an author's argument or narrative develops across paragraphs and chapters. Vansh teaches active reading strategies like annotation, summarization checkpoints, and inference-building that turn passive page-turning into genuine comprehension. These same skills carried him to a 1550 SAT, where reading speed and accuracy matter enormously.
