Your first hour with any tutor is always 100% refundable!

I have successfully tutored students for ACT and SAT test preparation as well as for class work, and I have assisted students with college entrance essays. I start by assessing students' work for areas of weakness and focus on or two key areas at a time. I prefer to tutor for ninety-minute sessions: much shorter sessions are not adequate, and most students are not able to focus for much longer. I will help students with college entrance essays, but I will not simply write or re-write essays for students because I consider that unethical.

Study Skills

"Study skills" is a very broad category, but as a State-certified teacher I believe I am well qualified. I have been working as a substitute teacher across all grade levels for the past two-and-a-half years (after earning my provisional certificate in the fall of 2010).

Public Speaking

I hold a current Michigan Provisional Teaching Certificate, and speech is one of my certified subjects (along with English and History).
