About Ashley

As a teacher and tutor for over 10 years, I've been dedicated to helping students unlock their full potential! With a graduate degree from Columbia University and a bachelor's degree from Wellesley College, I specialize in writing, reading, spelling, social studies, executive functioning, test preparation, and more. I tailor my approach to each student's unique learning style through active listening and varied teaching strategies. I foster a supportive and engaging environment, connecting challenging concepts to real-world examples and celebrating every success. Open communication is key to my tutoring philosophy, ensuring students, parents, and I are always on the same page. Witnessing a student's "aha!" moment and growth in confidence is the most rewarding part of this journey, and I'd love to help you or your student achieve those moments, too! l - Test prep: SAT, TOEFL, GRE - English as a Second Language (ESL) - College applications - Reading and comprehension - Writing
