Meet a Simply Tutoring Tutor - Madeleine Lee
Background
Madeleine Lee is a second-year student at The University of Texas at Austin studying business. She is currently doing a marketing internship and a communications internship alongside tutoring this summer. She has been with Simply Tutoring for almost two years and enjoys working with students of all ages in math, science, reading, and writing. Madeleine excels with younger students and loves to help build students’ fundamentals for future success. She has tutored within Simply Tutoring for almost two years, along with some outside tutoring prior to joining Simply Tutoring. Madeleine also works as an Assistant Teacher at WOW! Science Camp and really enjoys getting to teach and interact with the kids every summer.
Madeleine grew up in The Woodlands, specifically Alden Bridge. She attended Bush Elementary, Mitchell Intermediate, McCullough Junior High, and The Woodlands High School. She is very familiar with the education system and curriculum at schools in The Woodlands, especially for the honors and AP level classes. Madeleine graduated from The Woodlands High School as a Summa Cum Laude graduate. Madeleine found success in school through asking for help when needed and through having solid foundations in math, reading, and writing. Though she struggled in some areas, such as Physics, she found that strong learning intuition and knowledge of many subject basics allowed her to excel. Madeleine hopes to provide strong foundational skills for her students and encourages them to ask for help when needed.
Availability this summer
Madeleine specializes in tutoring math, science, reading, and writing, especially for younger kids who need to focus on fundamentals. She also enjoys tutoring high school chemistry and middle school subjects. Madeleine is available this summer for tutoring and is very flexible. She tutors at the students’ house or at coffee shops in The Woodlands. She has weekday and weekend availability for in person tutoring until mid-August and will continue with online tutoring after that.
Madeleine is also hosting two educational summer camps through Simply Tutoring. The first is called “Summer Spark: Creative Writing Workshop” and will focus on writing fundamentals and improving intuition when it comes to creative writing. Sessions will be focused on specific elements of writing such as planning, thesis statements, grammar, style, tone, and organization. This camp is geared toward 5th to 7th grade aged students. Her second academic camp is called “Math FUNdamentals” and is a math skills workshop that will include sessions on critical math topics and fun games. She aims to help students build a solid math foundation for those 5th to 7th grade in age.
Madeleine truly enjoys working with kids, helping students succeed, and being an educational mentor to those she works with. She is immensely proud of the work she has put in as tutor and a student herself and can proudly say that many of her students have seen successes in their work, too. Madeleine hopes to work with new students this summer and help them find success in their education.
