About
I build confidence in students by finding what works for each individual using an approach rooted in kindness and providing a safe, inclusive space. I'm motivated by a need to help make students' learning experiences positive and work with students of all ages 20+ hours a week on all subjects. My formal academic background began with earning my Associate's (AA) in General Studies through dual credit in high school. I am currently in my final year of my Bachelor of Science (BS) in Mathematics with an emphasis on Physics and Advocacy.

Carissa clearly has a passion for helping others and education as a whole. She was professional yet personable and never made me feel embarrassed for where I was at or for asking questions. She definitely helped me improve and Ill utilize the tips she gave me in the future!!

Perhaps what I most appreciate about Carissa is that she’s not only been a good math tutor, but she gets along amazingly with my 15-year-old-grandson. He can be in a negative space when I pick him up from school, and he clearly perks up when he and Carissa are working together – I hear them laugh together often. There doesn’t seem to be any ‘superiority’ in the relationship although it’s clear that she’s won the respect of my grandson.
Other things I also appreciate: she’s been highly reliable; she’s made every effort to accommodate and flex to meet our needs relative to schedules; she’s researched and recommended helpful resources; she’s been responsive when I’ve sent her messages; she’s been good about leeting us know if there a reason she needs to miss a session – and she always tries to make it up; she’s been willing to communicate with my grandson’s math teacher at school; and I should not fail to mention that I think her rates are quite reasonable.
Carissa is able to be an effective tutor without standing on formality, and that not the impression I got from other math tutors I initially considered. I truly ENJOY seeing her every week, and I would highly recommend her to anyone!
