As for my education and experience, I had a weighted 4.9 GPA in high school and an unweighted 3.9 in college, and I scored a 34 on my ACT. I shadowed a speech-language pathologist where I learned proper teaching techniques for young students that struggle with language and comprehension. Additionally, I tutored all throughout high school. As a student at UVA, I understand the challenges you may face in your coursework, whether it’s in psychology, history, writing, or math. I've had the privilege of assisting students in these subjects and have developed effective teaching techniques to make complex concepts more understandable.

I believe that learning should be a rewarding experience, and I'm here to provide the support and guidance you need to reach your academic goals. I'm patient, enthusiastic, and passionate about helping you succeed. Whether you're struggling with understanding historical events, crafting compelling essays, or tackling math problems, I'm here to make the learning process enjoyable and effective. My go-to methods are making outlines to learn the main ideas of a topic and working through practice problems together to overcome any challenges you're facing in your studies.

Kristen S.
United States Air Force Academy, Florida Atlantic University
USAFA grad, MD, and returned Peace Corps Volunteer who loves to teach & coach
I am a 2004 graduate of the United States Air Force Academy with a Bachelor of Science in philosophy & humanities. After graduation from college, I joined the United States Peace Corps and, for two years, lived in a small village in the sub-Saharan African country of Zambia. While there, I collaborated with Zambian colleagues at the grassroots level to increase rural awareness of preventive health measures to protect against malaria and other common diseases. Upon my return to the US from Africa, I began tutoring, and continued to do so as I worked my way through medical school. Subjects of expertise include standardized test prep, reading & writing, and math. My medical school experience forced me to learn techniques for efficient retention of large volumes of information. I, in turn, teach students these techniques, thus helping them retain what they have learned. I graduated from medical school in 2017 and continued tutoring, now with an additional focus on coaching. I believe this is what makes me unique as a tutor. I help students define goals, establish habits, and create systems that support good habits. We troubleshoot as difficulties maintaining habits arise, and modify our approach accordingly. I love helping students find their talents and translate them into career paths, including helping students find and apply for relevant programs of study, and finding professionals in those fields to advise and inspire. My medical knowledge, specifically my interest in mental health and how it contributes to academic & other success, also informs my work with students. I’ve successfully helped students with interventions like vitamin supplementation, dietary changes, and medication compliance for ADHD and other conditions, and more. I’ve consistently seen big improvements in students’ ability to focus, follow through, and in so doing, feel better about themselves. Please reach out if I can be of help to you or your student!
