About Chelsea
About Me | Study Skills Coach
Learning isn’t about how many hours you spend with your nose in a book—it’s about how you engage with the material, organize your time, and retain what you’ve studied. With 15+ years of experience in education, curriculum development, and behavioral support, I specialize in helping students build study skills that work for their brains, not just follow generic advice.
My background includes:
-English Major (Writing) and Theater Major (Playwriting & Dramaturgy)
-Behavioral Technician and Certified Peer Recovery Support Specialist
-Deep expertise in learning differences, including ADHD, executive dysfunction, and disabilities
-A passion for empowering students to take control of their learning
What Sets Me Apart: I don’t just teach what to study—I teach how to study.
My approach combines:
-Empathy and Adaptability: I meet students where they are, whether they’re struggling to keep up, aiming for top grades, or just want to feel more organized.
-Structured Systems: From note-taking to time management, I help students create personalized, sustainable habits that reduce stress and build confidence.
-Active Learning Techniques: I focus on strategies that work with the brain, not against it—like spaced repetition, self-quizzing, and teaching back concepts.
-Confidence and Clarity: My background in theater and writing has trained me to communicate clearly, think on my feet, and adapt to any learning style.

About the Lesson: Study Skills That Work for YOU
Studying doesn’t have to mean endless hours of rereading notes or cramming the night before a test. With the right strategies, structure, and mindset, you can learn more efficiently, retain information longer, and feel prepared and confident—not just for exams, but for lifelong learning. Whether you’re in middle school, high school, college, or beyond, I’ll help you build study skills that fit your brain, your schedule, and your goals.
What We’ll Focus On
Active Learning, Not Passive Review:
-How to read textbooks and notes strategically to extract key ideas.
-Effective annotation and highlighting to focus on what matters.
Self-quizzing and summarization to test your understanding.
Note-Taking Systems That Actually Work:
Finding your style: Are you a visual learner, a bullet-point thinker, or a digital organizer? We’ll design a system that works for you.
-Cornell Notes, mind maps, or digital tools—we’ll explore what fits your needs.
-How to review notes efficiently so you’re not wasting time.
Memory and Retention Techniques:
-Spaced repetition to move information from short-term to long-term memory.
-Mnemonic devices and visual aids for tricky concepts.
-The teach-back method to solidify your understanding.
Time Management and Planning:
-Breaking down big assignments into manageable chunks.
-Creating a study schedule that balances school, work, and life.
-Prioritizing tasks to focus on what’s most important.
Test Prep That’s More Than Just Drilling:
-How to approach different question types (multiple-choice, essays, problem-solving).
-Pacing strategies to avoid running out of time.
-Reducing test anxiety with mindfulness and preparation techniques.
Why This Approach Works
-You’ll save time and energy by studying smarter, not harder.
-No more last-minute cramming—just consistent, effective habits that reduce stress.
-A personalized system that grows with you, whether you’re in school, college, or beyond.
-Confidence that comes from knowing how to learn, not just memorizing facts.
-Whether you’re struggling to keep up, aiming for top grades, or just want to feel more in control of your workload, I’ll help you build the skills and systems to succeed.

Reviews
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Chelsea.
Perfect! Working with Chelsea has been a completely transformative experience that is entirely different from anything I’ve encountered in a traditional school setting. They are an incredibly empathetic and patient tutor who truly listens to your needs and creates a space where you feel genuinely valued.What sets them apart is how they address the whole student—not just the subject matter. They seamlessly weave behavioral strategies for managing test-taking anxiety into lessons, which has completely changed my mindset. They never just dictate what to do; instead, they patiently guide you through the material, helping you find your own way forward. I can't wait to keep working with them to uncover the best ways for me to study, learn, and build lasting academic confidence. I feel really lucky to have found them!

FANTASTIC teacher. Patient, kind, understand, funny and supportive. Well organized and well prepared. Also huge thanks for being punctual as well.
Chelsea took the time to understand my unique learning style, tailoring each session to address my specific needs and challenges. I look forward to our upcoming sessions, confident that Chelsea will continue to be an invaluable resource in my academic endeavors.
Chelsea is an AMAZING tutor!! she seriously takes so much time and effort to really make sure your child is getting the exact help they need and tailors her tutoring and lessons as such. Having Chelsea as a tutor has made my child a much stronger writer and I will be forever grateful to her.
Chelsea is a natural born teacher, she’s extremely personable and found a way to help connect me to the subject matter at hand. Essay writing and SAT prep were never my strengths but now that I’ve been accepted to college of my choosing I can say other wise. Thank you!
Chelsea helped make essay writing and test taking so much easier. They helped me navigate my anxieties and explained solutions in ways that I’ll be sure to carry over with me for other classes. The patience they had with me made all the difference in me successfully editing and rewriting.
Chelsea genuinely cares about your well-being and success, and will take the time to ensure you’re putting your best foot forward. Chelsea assisted me with grad school application essays and I’m very happy with the results- I was able to get into 90% of the schools I applied to and I believe it’s absolutely due to Chelsea’s help. Thank you to Chelsea!
Chelsea is a hard worker with a level of emotional intelligence that really allows her to connect with others and understand their unique learning abilities.
