Bio
Hello! My name is Carolyn Ezell, and I am excited to help you achieve your educational goals this year. I love to read, travel, and to visit museums. Overall, I think the most rewarding aspect of being a tutor is the chance to make a positive impact on the lives of my students and help them succeed in their studies and beyond. As an educator and tutor, I know and understand students, how they develop and learn. I know that students actively construct and transform their own knowledge based on past experiences and prior learning. I know that students do not all learn in the same way or at the same rate. I believe it is my responsibility as an educator and tutor to be an effective diagnostician of students’ interests, abilities, and prior knowledge. I must then plan learning experiences that will both challenge and allow every student to think and grow. I can't wait to meet you and help you excel in whatever areas that you need.
Teacher Specialization
I have been an in-person teacher in my area for many years, but switched over to teaching virtually 5 years ago. I have 15 years of experience as a Social Studies and ELA teacher. I have earned a Master of Science in Education at Capella University and a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work from the University of Memphis. I also have been a reading tutor for students in elementary, middle and high school. My background has prepared me to know how to explain difficult concepts to help students.
