About
Our Approach We provide individualized reading and writing instruction via Zoom for students ages 6–18. I hold a Master’s degree in Classical Studies (Literature and Rhetoric), and I use a classical, time-tested approach to help students think clearly, read well, and write with confidence. We use a systematic phonics approach that teaches students how to decode unfamiliar words using strong letter-sound knowledge—building independence, not guesswork. Reading Comprehension Students learn to break down texts, identify central ideas, and communicate their understanding clearly in both speaking and writing. We furnish students with a clear framework for writing. They learn to read primary sources, extract key ideas, and organize them into strong outlines that lead to original compositions. Grammar and Morphemes (NEW) Students study grammar and meaningful word parts (prefixes, roots, suffixes), strengthening vocabulary, spelling, and overall reading success. Our Philosophy We serve public, private, and homeschool students using a classical approach that cultivates wisdom, virtue, and a lifelong love of learning.

I cannot say enough great things about our experience with Ms. Cherry as a reading tutor! From the very first session, she built a strong connection with my son and created a warm, supportive learning environment that boosted both his confidence and his reading skills. Ms. Cherry is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and knows exactly how to make reading fun and engaging. She tailored each session to fit my son's needs, using creative strategies and interactive activities that kept him motivated and excited to learn. Thanks to her guidance and dedication, my son made tremendous progress — he received the “Most Improvement” award in the 4th quarter of 1st grade! That recognition meant so much to both of us, and it’s a clear reflection of the hard work and support Ms. Cherry provided. We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend Ms. Cherry to any parent looking for a kind, skilled, and effective reading tutor. She truly makes a difference!

Stacy has been a blessing for my daughter. My daughter is in the sixth grade and was performing on the fourth-grade level. After 1 month with Stacy, I am proud to say that my daughter is performing on the seventh-grade level. Stacy is an advocate for fundamentals. Most public schools have gotten away from teaching students fundamentals and focus more on standardized testing. I wish that we would have found Stacy at an earlier date. Stacy, my family is profoundly grateful to have you as our daughter’s tutor. I highly recommend Stacy and Cherry-Picked Education.

Stacy has introduced our son to a fresh and effective method of learning to read by focusing on the foundational rules of the English language. She has simplified the essential components and guidelines, enabling him to grasp sounds more effectively. Her professional demeanor, positive energy during each session, and excellent communication skills, along with her adaptability, truly stand out. As a result, our son has made noticeable progress in his Virginia VALLS scores and has achieved tier 1 reading status. Additionally, she provides support in enhancing his writing skills. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a tutor, as understanding the rules of English and the relationships between letters greatly boosts a child's confidence in identifying similar sounds. Mrs. Stacy is an invaluable resource for any student.

Stacy Cherry is simply phenomenal! I ordered an assessment for my niece and although we had some shifts in schedules on both sides, communication was easy we were still able to get the assessment done! Stacy’s interpretation of the test results shine through in her attention to detail and her uncanny ability to see a child’s spirit. Her heart is pure in how she explains the child’s strengths and weaknesses. The advice and encouragement she shared was poignant and heart felt. This is a service would greatly benefit anyone interested and I am sure her students thrive because of her genuineness and professionalism. Hire her! 💕

Ms. Stacy at Cherry Picked Education is such a great teacher! My child has improved on his STAR test within two months and had said a lot of the help came from Ms. Stacy teaching him vocabularies & reading comprehension. He is very happy with his improvement and eager to learn more with Ms. Stacy. Thank you Ms. Stacy for helping out my child.
