Hi there! I'm Emma, a lifelong learner, educator, and advocate for curiosity-driven thinking.

I’m an experienced educator with a B.A. in Anthropology from Miami University and a strong academic foundation in both the sciences and humanities. My coursework blended biology, chemistry, cultural theory, and writing-intensive research, which makes me uniquely qualified to tutor across multiple subject areas—including Biology, Chemistry, English, ACT Prep, Social Studies, History, and foundational Math. I’ve also worked in two public school districts as an Education Specialist and Teaching Assistant, where I supported high school students in the classroom and one-on-one settings. My work emphasized personalized learning, inclusive teaching practices, and building student confidence across a range of learning goals.

Beyond the classroom, I’ve tutored high school students independently for several years, helping them tackle complex assignments, prepare for standardized tests, and improve their study habits. I’m comfortable adapting to various learning styles and skill levels, and I specialize in breaking down big ideas into manageable steps. Whether we’re reviewing a science lab, strengthening a thesis statement, or prepping for a high-stakes exam, I focus on helping students build lasting skills, not just get through the next test. I’ve also worked in customer service roles where empathy and communication are essential, and I bring that same supportive, approachable energy into my tutoring sessions.

What sets me apart as a tutor is my interdisciplinary mindset and my ability to connect with students on a human level. With a background that bridges STEM, the humanities, and public education, I know how to meet learners where they are and help them grow with confidence. My goal is not just to boost grades—it’s to help students better understand themselves as learners and feel empowered in the process.

Approved Subjects

Anthropology

Anthropology

Award Winning Anthropologist with a Bachelor's degree from Miami University. I gained a holistic education including Biological, Cultural, and Linguistic Anthropology and Archaeology. I completed two year long independent research projects, presented at he Undergraduate Research Forum, and interned with the National Science Foundation. Resume can be submitted for approval.
Archaeology

Archaeology

I earned a B.A. in Anthropology and have a strong foundation in archaeological theory and method, including how to evaluate evidence, interpret material culture, and build clear arguments from data. I’ve also worked with archival preservation practices—organizing, documenting, and helping safeguard cultural materials so they remain accessible for research and community use. In addition, I’ve supported 3D printing workflows for artifacts, which sharpened my understanding of artifact analysis, documentation standards, and ethical handling of cultural heritage. As a tutor, I can help with core archaeology topics (dating methods, stratigraphy, field methods, ethics) and strengthen archaeology writing—from thesis and structure to evidence and citations.
Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I bring a research-driven approach to creative writing, grounded in my Anthropology and Linguistics background and my experience producing clear, compelling narratives from interviews, field notes, and qualitative insights. I’ve spent 2+ years researching Indigenous storytelling and documentary development, which strengthened my understanding of voice, structure, and culturally respectful storytelling practices. I can help you develop strong fiction fundamentals—character, plot, dialogue, pacing, and theme—while also refining style through targeted, line-level revision. As a tutor, I’ll guide you from concept to draft to polished piece with supportive feedback and practical exercises tailored to your goals.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I’m an experienced writer of research-based essays and reports, with a background in Anthropology and Linguistics and hands-on work turning interviews, surveys, and qualitative findings into clear, persuasive narratives. I’ve produced stakeholder-ready deliverables like research reports, presentations, and summaries that translate complex evidence into actionable conclusions. I’ve also supported IRB-approved fieldwork and grant-related writing, so I can help you craft strong thesis statements, organize arguments logically, and integrate sources with proper citation. As a tutor, I focus on structure, clarity, and voice—plus line-by-line revision to tighten grammar, flow, and impact.
Fiction Writing

Fiction Writing

I bring a research-driven approach to creative writing, grounded in my Anthropology and Linguistics background and my experience producing clear, compelling narratives from interviews, field notes, and qualitative insights. I’ve spent 2+ years researching Indigenous storytelling and documentary development, which strengthened my understanding of voice, structure, and culturally respectful storytelling practices. I can help you develop strong fiction fundamentals—character, plot, dialogue, pacing, and theme—while also refining style through targeted, line-level revision. As a tutor, I’ll guide you from concept to draft to polished piece with supportive feedback and practical exercises tailored to your goals.
French

French

I studied abroad in France and got hands on experience. I’ve done research on dialects and I have experience with linguistics and language revitalization. Other than pragmatic use I studied the deeper nuances of language as a study.
Linguistics

Linguistics

I’m a linguistics researcher with an Anthropology & Linguistics background and an NSF-funded Linguistics REU where I supported Indigenous language projects through transcription, translation, and linguistic analysis (including IPA). I’ve also coordinated IRB-approved multilingual fieldwork and synthesized qualitative findings into clear, actionable reports for academic and community stakeholders. As a tutor, I can help you master core topics (phonetics/phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, sociolinguistics) and strengthen linguistic writing, data analysis, and research methods.
Needlework

Needlework

I have over a year of needlework experience, with a focus on bead embroidery that I began while working as an Education Specialist supporting Native and Indigenous students. I’m comfortable teaching both the fundamentals (materials, stitch basics, pattern planning) and the practical details that make beadwork look clean and durable (tension, spacing, finishing, and repair). I pick up new techniques quickly and can adapt lessons to a student’s pace—whether they’re brand new or trying to refine their craftsmanship. As a tutor, I’ll help you build confidence through guided practice, clear demonstrations, and achievable mini-projects you can finish and feel proud of.
Sociology

Sociology

I hold a B.A. in Anthropology, which gives me a strong foundation in sociological theory, social structures, cultural systems, and qualitative research methods that are central to Sociology coursework. Through academic and applied projects—such as research on indigeneity, identity, digital media, and community-based education—I have analyzed social institutions, power dynamics, inequality, and group behavior using real-world data. My experience conducting interviews, surveys, ethnographic analysis, and data synthesis allows me to clearly explain abstract sociological concepts through concrete examples and case studies. As a tutor, I help students connect theory to lived experience, strengthen critical thinking, and build confidence in writing, research, and exam preparation in Sociology
United States History

United States History

My background in Anthropology and Linguistics gives me a strong foundation for U.S. history tutoring—especially when it comes to analyzing culture, identity, and historical change through evidence. In my NSF-funded research work, I conducted archival analysis and translated historical materials (including 1800s-era notes) into usable findings for academic and community partners. I’ve also supported Native and Indigenous-centered education and research, which helps me teach U.S. history with more context on Indigenous histories and perspectives. As a tutor, I can help you understand primary sources, build clear timelines and themes, and write stronger, evidence-based history essays.
