About Me

Hi,My name is Michelle and I am a private math, french and test prep instructor based out of South Jersey. I tutor students throughout Philadelphia, South Jersey and Wilmington DE. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania summa cum laude in May of 2014 with a BA in Cultural Anthropology and a Certificate in French Language and Literature. My tutoring career began in high school as a member of the National Honor Society and continued throughout and after college. I now operate my own tutoring company Expert Instruction LLC. The primary goal of my tutoring service is to help students develop a growth mindset and enjoy the process of learning. I provide one-on-one instruction for all levels of math up to and including calculus, French language and standardized exams such as SAT, ACT, and GRE. It would be my pleasure to help more students as a Varsity Tutor.

Q&A with Michelle

My teaching philosophy is that conceptual understanding and practice make perfect. My goal as a tutor is to first make sure that the student grasps the basic concept at hand and then move onto routine practice to help internalize the solution strategies. I believe that all students are capable of making progress. My one-on-one instruction method is tailored for students as individuals. That being said, tutoring sessions are targeted to strengthen students' unique weaknesses and to build upon their individual talents.
