I am an experienced tutor with experience both in-person and virtually. I have degrees in Public Health: Health Science and Editing & Publishing. I scored a 36 on the ACT and 1560 on the SAT. Additionally, I am a National Merit Scholar and was nominated as a U.S. Presidential scholar. I've worked over 700 hours as a tutor through various platforms, and I have also worked as a museum educator.

I love learning about a wide variety of subjects, and I enjoy taking difficult or complex subjects and figuring out how to share them in a way that makes the most sense. There is nothing quite as satisfying as the "aha!" moment when something clicks in a student's head. I want to share my love of learning. I have found that as a tutor, I value personalization and patience. I want my students to not only know the material, but have confidence in their own abilities.

I am particularly experienced in English, having worked as a writer and editor. I have experience in many types of writing, including academic, creative writing, speech writing, and journalism. I also am eager to help others excel in standardized testing, as I know it is something many struggle with.

I would love to help you learn and feel more confident in your studies! If you would like to schedule a lesson, please contact me and I will reply promptly.

Holly is an amazing tutor!

Holly is an amazing tutor and has been helping our son with writing and math. We couldn’t be more happy! She is patient and explains the subject matter clearly and in a way our son can understand. We love how consistent and flexible she is and goes the extra mile to make sure he really understands. Holly has the rare ability to get to the root of the problem and not just give the answers. Our son has improved so much in the last 3 months, we highly recommend her!
