FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge an hourly rate. I switched to virtual tutoring because of the pandemic but stayed virtual because of the extremely positive feedback and preference I received from my students. The advertised price is the hourly rate for virtual tutoring or if the student travels to my location. In-person tutoring is priced differently depending on how far the student lives.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Prior to an initial lesson, I recommend scheduling an initial call to discuss the academic goals for the student and my tutoring strategies to determine if we are a positive fit. Then, as I start working with the students, I will take note of their current performance compared to the goal so I can provide realistic and accurate feedback to the family. Then, as the sessions progress, I tailor the lessons to meet the student's needs. It is important that families are patient and recognize that for me to provide critical feedback, I need to work with the student for a few weeks, so I can fully analyze the student's current performance compared to what is required of them to reach their goal.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated Cum Laude from undergrad and gained a scholarship to Boston University where I obtained a master's degree. I have a pre-med degree (Biology I and II, General Chemistry I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, Anatomy and Physiology, Psychology, Algebra I and II, Trigonometry, Microbiology, Physics I and II), a pre-law degree, and I took graduate level math, law, applied research, and writing courses. I have 10+ years of tutoring experience with students from middle school to the college level.
