About

One size never fits all. I believe that each student is a unique individual and needs a personalized approach to tutoring. I focus on helping students reach their goals and feel confident in their ability to succeed - because they can!

I am passionate about helping students feel prepared for success on the ACT or to thrive in their math/English classes! I have a masters in education and have been tutoring online and in-person for more than 8 years.

Personal connection and starting where the student is at are essential for success. Each student has unique strengths and challenges. I tailor my tutoring to meet students' needs and goals. I look forward to talking with you about your student and to sharing with you how I can help him/her reach their full potential!

I am passionate about helping students feel confident in their learning, and their ability to reach their goals. Too often students put a negative label on themselves, or they feel this label from someone else. I really enjoy helping students peel off this label to find the one inside of them that reflects who they really are and their potential!

    Cara was fantastic! She helped two of my sons prepare for the ACT and really drilled down in their weak areas. She taught them skills to help them with time management and gave them confidence when they took the test. One son scored a 34 and one son scored a 36. They wouldn’t have done nearly as well without Cara’s help!

    Cara has been an amazing tutor who not only teaches and personalizes her sessions extremely well, but also develops a fantastic rapport with the student, whatever his or her level of motivation, so that every session is productive. I am extremely grateful to have found such an excellent and personable tutor and highly recommend her.

    I’ve had two children work with Cara and she is just fantastic! My daughter pulled her ACT score up 6 points after working with her. I passed her name along to my sister as well and my nephew really had a good experience with Cara. She is positive and so motivating.

    Frequently asked questions

    I would like to learn about your student and his/her educational challenges and goals. I will explain my approach to tutoring, and how I work to establish a connection with students. We will agree on day/time for a trial session, and I am happy to answer any questions you have!

    I have a masters in education, but I have been working with students in grades 1- 12th in Engish, Math, and ACT prep for over 8 years. I am passionate about what I do and in helping students feel confidence in their ability to learn and reach their goals!

    For most tutoring, I charge $35 for each hour-long session, and it's adjusted accordingly if I meet for more or less time with a student. This fee includes any prep work I do in between sessions. If applicable, it also includes the student's access to Raz Kids and Education.com for extra support and resources outside of our sessions. There is no commitment, and if the client is not happy with the first session and does not want to continue, the session fee will be waived, 

    I love working individually with students. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach to learning, and I feel that tutoring is the best way to help students with individual needs and goals be successful. 

    I have worked with boys and girls in grades K-12 in Math, English, Reading, Writing and ACT prep. 

    I highly suggest that students look for someone with knowledge, experience, passion, and an ability to connect! I would suggest taking the time to talk with the tutor ahead of time to make sure it's a good fit for the tutor and the student. 

    If age-appropriate, students should think about what their goals are, and how they are struggling to reach those goals.
