About Ellen

I began tutoring in college as a supplemental Instructor for American History. My job was to help students learn/improve writing skills, specifically essays. My fields of study allow me to tutor most subjects and education levels.

Qualifications and Accomplishments:

-High school Valedictorian-graduated a year early

-Perfect score on the verbal section of the SAT

-Graduated from Texas State University with cum laude honors

-Former middle school history teacher

To schedule a free consultation, send me a message.

I look forward to helping you or your child reach and exceed academic goals!

I teach my students the skills required to conquer the areas of study with which they have difficulty. I also focus on building the student's confidence and self-esteem.

There is nothing more rewarding than witnessing a child achieve success. I am here to equip them with the knowledge, skills, confidence, and motivation that allow them to reach their full potential.

-History major, Business minor, cum laude honors

-Supplement Instructor for college students

-Former middle school teacher

-Mom

About the lesson

I was typically request a syllabus for the course. If this is not available, I will ask for the grade level, subject, and topic/topics that need improvement. If possible, I will ask the parent to contact the instructor(s) in which the student needs assistance. Their input will help me focus the tutoring topics and pacing. Additionally, some teachers like to send extra work/practice home to guide the focus of the sessions.

Next, I was ask for a timeline. Is the tutoring for project or assignment, or is the tutoring to be ongoing? For projects, I will help your child develop a mini-deadline plan, or chunking sections of the project to be completed by specific dates. Learning and mastering this skill will help your child for the rest of their lives.

Then, I will work with the student/parent to create a timeline/plan for the tutoring. The number of times per week I see a student depends on the needs of the student. I recommend having a minimum of 2 sessions per week.

I have worked with a variety of ages and ability levels.

I have enjoyed working with Special Education students of varying ability levels and ages.

I have also worked with students in IB, AP, and Gifted and Talented, and students in college honors courses.

I recommend an in-person consultation. The student and their parent need to make sure they "click" with the tutor. If the student or parent don't like the tutor for whatever reason, the sessions will likely not be productive or effective.

Ellen worked with my daughter throughout the college application process. Besides the help with essays and proofreading, Ellen built up my daughter's confidence in her abilities.

Ellen is knowledgeable about colleges and universities around the country. She gave suggestions based on my daughter's educational interests and goals.

After building up my daughter's self esteem over the several months we worked with her, my daughter decided to apply to the Ivy League school she had always dreamed of going.

My daughter was accepted at Georgetown and is in her second year there. If this lady hadn't lifted my child up, helped her believe in herself, she never would have applied. Thanks, Ellen.

Ellen assisted my son with ELA and history at a rigorous and competitive local private school. Day 1, Ellen arrived prepared-reference books, skill drills, graphic organizers for essay prep, and a motivational attitude. My son’s grades increased from a Cs to As. The increase in my son’s confidence in his abilities was a delight to witness.

I recommend using Ellen due to her comprehensive tutoring-helping your child the subject matter while also boosting their self-esteem.
