About Amy Joy

Experience: 8 yrs

I have a creative and encouraging personality. I enjoy tutoring because students are often so discouraged and down on themselves, and I can help them understand the material and gain self-confidence again. In the core of my being, I'm a nurturer and caregiver. Yes, I'm intelligent and diligent and hard-working, but my primary goal is to build in children an appreciation for how cool the world is. I have six younger brothers and sisters and a household of my own children. Teaching and guiding is what I do naturally. I'm a degreed scientist with experience as a chemist and paleontologist, but I also have written books for a living. My job is to know things, but my particular skill is taking the things I know and putting them into simple terms and helping people feel their own intelligence by the end.
