My name is Kirsten. I have over 20 years of experience tutoring students in English, writing and mathematics, particularly algebra. I enjoy helping my students reach their personal and educational goals. I know I have succeeded when a student no longer feels they need my assistance. I am experienced in both online and live in-person tutoring.
My hobbies include rock hunting, writing, maritime and shipwreck history and crochet. I volunteer as a tour guide at a Maritime Museum and give tours of a historic lighthouse. I am also a published article writer and current edit a newsletter for my local rock and mineral club.
Join me in the pursuit of learning. I love to learn as well as teach.

I have both a love of and a knack for working with quadratic functions and solving equations. I have several years experience tutoring college Algebra, precalculus and college level math. I am patient and kind, and I have the ability to explain even the most complex concepts in a way that makes sense even to "math-phobes."

Tutoring English and writing is my specialty. I have almost two decades of experience tutoring English and writing both in person and online. I am patient and can explain why a sentence does or does not work without confusing terminology. I love the written word, and I am good at conveying that love to others.

Contact me today to start your journey toward better grades and, more importantly, a better understanding of your subject. I am available to help you help yourself.
