I am Leigh, though I go by Meredith, my middle name. I have been a teacher and tutor for over half my life. I teach and tutor because I love learning and love spending time with kids of all ages. I am here to help.

You must be wondering about qualifications. I have an undergraduate degree in English and history from Boston University, a graduate degree in English from Indiana University, and a graduate degree in special education from Xavier University. I am licensed to teach in the state of Ohio.

As a teacher, I have worked with students as young as 2nd grade and as old as 40+, in English, history, math, speech, and more. I have been a tutor in a whole host of test prep topics for over 20 years. I have trained other teachers, written materials, and found a host of routes to my main goal, which is always to help students gain skills, build confidence, and reach their goals.
