Borden Tutoring
About
I am a sophomore in college and I have been teaching peers and others for many years unpaid (unofficial tutoring). I have quotes from many of my teachers and professors about my enthusiasm when it comes to teaching my peers. I am always open to criticism or suggestions! I earned high honors and passed with honors for my entire high school experience. I completed every other year with honors and the fall of 2019 I was awarded with the History Student of the Trimester. I
also earned faculty honors at Trinity college my freshman year. I Since I am a college student I have plenty of free time to help last minute as well as planned tutoring sessions. Please contact me for any further information on my education and future plans.
From when I was very young, I have loved school. Learning was always something that I found joy in and I want to make sure that my students feel the same way.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Facetime or Zoom classes would be ideal but phone calls are always okay! Considering COVID-19, I am not currently able to meet in person. I would ideally have an initial meeting with my student and get to know them and their learning habits, after that it is entirely up to their and my schedules!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
High school graduate, graduated with high honors and passing with honors for my senior year trimesters and honors for the rest of my high school education. Earned faculty honors freshman year of college.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
$35/hour is my rate but can be negotiated depending on different situations.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Although I do not think it should matter entirely, I believe to be an effective tutor or teacher the students and teachers need to connect. Whether it is by chatting or sharing previous classes and favorite subjects, I believe it is important to have a relationship that is equal and comfortable for both parties.
