About
I don’t just tutor — I help students feel confident, organized, and capable again.
I specialize in Math, ELA, Science, and Social Science for middle and high school students, with a strong focus on students who feel overwhelmed, behind, or unmotivated. My sessions are structured, supportive, and personalized to each student’s learning style.
What makes my tutoring different:
• 1-on-1 personalized support (no generic lessons)
• I help students understand concepts, not just memorize
• Strong focus on organization, accountability, and study skills
• Patient, encouraging approach that reduces stress and builds confidence
• Experience supporting online school students (FLVS & similar programs)
Parents appreciate that I communicate clearly, set realistic goals, and help students become more independent — not dependent on tutoring forever.
My goal is simple: better grades, less stress, and a student who believes in themselves again.

Kelly is a highly dedicated and professional teacher. She is very thoughtful in her approach and tailors her teaching to meet the different levels and needs of my two children, rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
In addition to well-structured and engaging lessons, she assigns reasonable and appropriate homework that reinforces what is taught without overwhelming the students. She also makes good use of various teaching tools and resources to support learning and keep lessons effective and interactive.
Most importantly, Kelly consistently encourages the students and helps them build confidence in their English skills. Her positive attitude and supportive teaching style have made a noticeable difference in my children’s motivation and self-confidence.

Teacher Kelly is an excellent math teacher who explains concepts clearly and patiently. She makes even difficult topics easier to understand by breaking them down step by step and using practical examples. She is supportive, encouraging, and always willing to help when students have questions. Her teaching style builds confidence and helps students truly improve their math skills. I highly recommend Teacher Kelly to any student who wants to grow and succeed in math.

As a mom, I’ve been really happy with my daughter’s algebra and ELA classes with Teacher Kelly. She explains things clearly and is very patient, especially with math, which has always been a challenge for my daughter. I’ve seen improvement in both her confidence and her schoolwork. Overall, it’s been a positive experience and very helpful for her.
