Pinckney Tutors
About
I have always had a passion for learning, and giving back. Starting in middle school, I began to peer tutor and do volunteer work in my free time. This helped to mold me into the professional I am today as I find no greater joy than helping a child reach their potential. I offer one on one or small group sessions that are dedicated at catered to whatever the student’s need may be. I believe teaching is a calling, and it has always come natural to me. I continue to learn new things everyday and I apply real life aspects to help prepare my students to become well rounded adults that have the confidence, and are ready to take on the world after graduation! On the very slight chance I cannot find a proper way to connect with the child, and do not seem to be helping I will not waste any time or money and refer the child to a tutor I believe would be more suitable for that child’s academic needs.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First I like to get to know my students, what they like to do outside of academics, what they would like to be when they grow up, and figure out goals that the student and I would like to achieve.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BA in Political Science with a minor in History, and am a certified Teacher’s Assistant in New York. I have been tutoring since I was in middle school.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I normally charge $15-$20 per hour and per child based on the payer’s income and the extent of the help that is needed.
