About Me

Hello! I am a PhD student in Literature at Duke University. I have been tutoring (and directing tutoring programs) for years and am looking forward to working with you to meet your goals! I have spent nearly every year since college tutoring in some capacity, including as a volunteer through my current church. I enjoy the challenge of discerning the best way for each particular student to understand and absorb information, and am always thrilled to see when they regain their confidence in their own abilities.

Q&A with Renee

For students struggling with reading comprehension, we will work slowly with small chunks of a text at a time, so that the student learns to put the concepts into his/her own words. Often, boredom with the subject matter or concern over vocabulary words are impediments to cognition, so I will pay special attention to both.
