While in North Carolina I attended graduate school at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I conducted my quantitative thesis research at UNCW--which focuses on how educational inequalities perpetuate variations in the ways that individual’s access, use and benefit from Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) & the Internet. Moreover, I completed my undergraduate studies at Binghamton University and, next fall, I plan on beginning a Doctoral program for Information Communication Studies or Sociology.For fun, I have many hobbies--most of which involve being active outdoors and spending time with my friends and family. This past summer I spent a lot of time paddle-boarding at Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina—until I moved to Colorado.

I have always been a very studious person. I promise I'm not boring, though! Throughout both high school and so far in college, students would often ask me for help in classes, whether it be helping with specific content or just with how to study for that specific class. Over time, I realized that I really liked to help people. After all, that is also one of the reasons I'm pursuing nursing. I am a current nursing student at the University of North Carolina Wilmington and I have loved it so far.The subject and/or area I am typically best with is simply organization and study habits. It can be hard to figure out what study habits work for you across different subjects and to find the best way of scheduling and working with different courses. I love to help with these types of things and have lots of experience with adjusting study habits and organization based on specific courses. I also have some really fun study habits and ways of organizing that I have come up with over the years!I also, however, have a soft spot for Trigonometry and some Advanced Functions and Modeling (AFM) as well. I took Trig and AFM in high school and absolutely fell in love. I think they are super fun.Ultimately, I am here to help! It can be intimidating to face subjects or content that you find more difficult, so it's beneficial to tackle it now before you get too overwhelmed. I would be honored to help you do that.** in the comments/description, please include what topics you are currently working on for the course you need help in. That will help me be prepared prior to our first session, rather than having to organize practice material as we go. Thanks!

Frequently Asked Questions

Tutors who graduated from UNCW bring firsthand knowledge of the university's academic standards, course structures, and expectations. They've successfully navigated the same coursework and challenges that current students face, giving them credibility and practical insight into what it takes to succeed. This shared experience helps them anticipate common stumbling blocks and explain concepts in ways that resonate with UNCW students.

UNCW alumni tutors excel across a wide range of subjects, from core sciences and mathematics to business, humanities, and specialized UNCW programs. Because they've completed coursework at UNCW, they understand the specific curriculum and teaching approaches used in each department. Whether you need help with introductory courses or advanced major-specific classes, Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have direct experience in those subjects.

Yes. Tutors who graduated from UNCW are familiar with popular courses and program requirements across the university. They can help you prepare for exams, work through challenging assignments, and develop study strategies tailored to how UNCW professors teach. This means less time explaining what your class is about and more time actually improving your understanding.

The jump from high school to university academics is significant—the pace is faster, expectations are higher, and the study skills that worked before may not be enough. UNCW alumni tutors have been through this transition themselves and can share strategies they used to adapt. They can help you develop effective note-taking habits, time management skills, and test preparation techniques specific to university courses.

While tutoring is primarily focused on academic support, building a relationship with someone who knows UNCW's community and programs can be valuable. Alumni tutors understand the university's culture, can discuss career paths within your major, and can offer perspective on how to get the most out of your time at UNCW—from research opportunities to internships and student organizations.

Results depend on where you're starting and how consistently you work with a tutor, but most students see meaningful progress within 3-4 weeks of regular sessions. Having a tutor who understands UNCW's specific academic environment helps accelerate this process. The key is addressing gaps early and building strong foundational skills, rather than waiting until just before exams.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have completed degrees or taken major-specific coursework at UNCW. Whether you're pursuing business, marine biology, nursing, education, or another program, alumni tutors bring real experience with the curriculum and can guide you through challenging core classes and major requirements. This helps you succeed in the courses that matter most to your degree.
