Hi, I’m Michelle—an experienced and passionate tutor who believes in making learning both effective and empowering.
I first discovered my love for teaching in high school when I built and ran a successful tutoring business, working with over 20 students one-on-one. I tutored elementary through high school students in subjects like math, science, and writing, developing personalized learning plans that focused on building confidence and true understanding—not just short-term results. Watching students gain not just better grades but a better relationship with learning is what made me fall in love with this work.
I’m now a rising senior at Duke University, majoring in Computer Science. I regularly tutor high school and college students in computer science, including AP Computer Science and introductory programming, as well as math, science, writing, and test prep. Beyond academics, I serve in several leadership roles on campus where I coach peers in communication and strategy, which has further strengthened my ability to explain concepts clearly and meet students where they are.
My tutoring style is patient, structured, and student-centered. I focus on breaking down difficult material into manageable steps and helping students build strong problem-solving habits they can rely on across subjects. Whether you're struggling with a specific topic or looking to stay ahead in class, I tailor every session to your goals and learning style. I also believe that tutoring should be a supportive, low-stress space, so I always aim to create a positive environment where questions are encouraged and mistakes are just part of the process.
I'm available for both short-term help and ongoing support. I’m happy to offer a quick consultation to understand your needs before getting started, and I’ll always follow up by email with next steps after each session. If you’re looking for help in computer science, math, science, SAT, ACT, or writing, I’d love to work with you!
