“Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”
—Abigail Adams
Qualifications:
I am a licensed teacher and have been working as a private tutor since 2015. I have tutored in remedial subjects, academic coaching, and homeschool curriculums. I have earned both undergraduate and graduate degrees in education. I am certified in CPR and First Aid for infants, children, and adults. I regularly complete continuing education courses and read parenting books to further my knowledge, because I believe you can never know enough!
★★★★★
We enjoyed having Jamie as a tutor because of her patience, creativity and ability to explain topics well. Her lessons allowed for my seven year old son to advance in his academic studies from behind to above grade level in just one year with twice-weekly hour-long tutoring lessons.

What is an academic coach?
An academic coach helps guide students of all ages to achieve academic success, but they are not a teacher. An academic coach instructs students on how to cultivate strong study skills, prepare for exams, and become a competitive college applicant. Skills-based assistance may also include time management, creating functional systems, learning organization habits, study skills, and designing disability accommodations.
