Kym’s Approach
Her warm, dynamic approach is interactive and innovative.
She integrates mindfulness and social-emotional learning with academic skills to help even the most reluctant learners engage and develop their confidence and competence.
Kym’s experience + qualifications
Kym taught high school English and History/Social Studies for over a decade in public, private and charter schools. This gave her the chance to support a diverse array of more than a thousand young people on their path to academic success.
Level Up Writing Skills
An avid writer and researcher herself, she specializes in supporting students at every step of the writing process. Students hone their ability to produce essays and research papers, and to convey their thoughts with clarity and confidence. With her guidance and support, struggling students can upgrade their study skills and test-taking strategies.
Social-Emotional Support
Kym also offers support to the parents of struggling students.
Academic challenges often come with anxiety, depression, screen addiction, and other social-emotional issues that are common to adolescents.
Kym uses her background in counseling and conflict resolution to help families ease the communication and power struggles that sometimes accompany challenges with school.
Classes
In addition to tutoring, Kym offers classes, both to youth and adults.
For students who enjoy the creative literary and visual arts, she teaches poetry, memoir-writing, and drawing to groups and individuals. She also provides coaching for social emotional wellness, and classes for the GEMS Story Project, a multimedia cultural history project that helps people record and research family stories and cultural history.
