Hello, my name is Amanda C. I am a University of Virginia graduate excited to offer my tutoring assistance for K-12 with special focus on English, Writing, Study Skills and Organization. I am based out of Herndon, VA and have availability to meet most weeknights as well as weekends. As your tutor, you can rely on me to be available on a regular basis and I am pleased to arrange meetings at regular intervals (most commonly, once a week, repeating on the same day and time each week).

My approach is to be available when my students need me, so we can work together towards gradual improvement. When it comes to developing excellent study skills, practice and patience goes a long way and I know from my experience as a student how to develop a healthy relationship with homework and time management. For high school students, I offer assistance with thesis and/or research essays and the college application process, specifically with essay writing.

A little about my background is that I have a full time position as a Marketing Specialist but first and foremost I am a forever student. Some of my greatest achievements in high school: I graduated with a GPA of 4.3, won top in my class awards for Latin and Literature, got a 5 on my Latin and Literature AP exams, a 4 in US History and got a high score of 700 for the writing component of the SAT. I worked in a school for six years as an after-school assistant. I invested my time in getting to know students from grades K-6 with all different backgrounds and academic levels, helping them with their homework and building up their spirits! I attribute my passion for learning to my supportive parents and the wonderful tutors I had while attending middle and high school. They inspired me to reach my potential and continue striving even when a particular subject was bringing me down. I hope to inspire you as my student!

Feel free to reach out with any questions. Excited to work together towards improvement!

Approved Subjects

College Counseling

College Counseling

I am a former UVA student now graduate looking to help seniors with their college admission essays, from initial concepts to confidently hitting that submit button. It is important to demonstrate personality through the written components that go into college applications and I am very well versed in assisting with enhancing writing qualities so that students convey the confidence and true-to-self personality admission officers are looking for. From my experience being admitted for both undergraduate and graduate level, I know the tips and tricks of casting yourself in the best light for those applications and would be happy to share my expertise.
Thesis Writing

Thesis Writing

For both high school and college, I executed thesis projects that required a researched and written essay defending my statement. I also achieved a perfect score on my AP Literature exam and 700 high score for the writing component of the SAT. I can say that writing has always been my strong suit.
