What are your professional qualifications?​

I am passionate about helping students succeed, so I prioritize ongoing professional development.  Here are some highlights.
  • I have 11 years of teaching and tutoring experience.  My extensive experience means that I can tailor instruction to your child's needs.
  • I completed the AP Summer Institute Training (AP US History) in 2019.  I have been through the College Board's official teacher training program, where I got the inside scoop on techniques and strategies for AP History exams.  I share all of this information with my students so they can get an edge.

What's included in tutoring?

When you take lessons with me, you get access to all of the following:

  • Advice tailored to your specific situation.
  • A recording of every session, if desired.
  • Extra resources to support your child's growth.
  • A newsletter packed with tips and strategies.  ​

How much does tutoring cost?

I currently charge $85.00 for one hour of private tutoring.


Discounts are available for small groups and bundles of sessions.  Please inquire directly.


I accept all major credit cards, debit cards, PayPal, and Venmo.  PayLater is available through PayPal.  If you are not happy with your last session, it's completely free.  ​

Where are lessons?

I offer personalized tutoring online.  I use Zoom for all of my sessions.  There are a number of advantages to online tutoring.

  • Convenience.  No need to leave your house if the weather is bad or traffic is awful.  This allows you to make the best use of your time and save money.
  • Flexibility.  When meeting online, I have access to all of my resources at a moment's notice.  This makes it easier to pivot and target specific areas of need.
  • Availability.  Online tutoring allows me to offer a wider variety of time slots, and eliminates time spent commuting.  This makes it easier for us to find a time that works well for you.  ​

What are your terms and conditions?

Do you have experience helping students who have IEP or 504 plans?

Yes!  All students are welcome! I have extensive training and experience working with students with 504 plans, IEPs, and diverse learning needs.  I have formal training in accessible learning design and educational psychology.  I have seen first-hand how additional support can help students thrive in their AP class.​

What Times Are Available?

I currently tutor Sunday through Thursday.  My earliest availability is at 1:00 PM Eastern/2:00 PM Pacific.  My last spot is at 9:10 PM Eastern/7:10 PM Pacific.
