About Amanda
I am an experienced educator and tutor with over fifteen years of working with students of all ages, from pre-K to college level. My teaching background includes both in-person and virtual classroom settings, supported by specialized training in online education. I bring a warm, structured, and strategic approach to each session to ensure that students feel at ease while gaining confidence and mastery in the material.
I have extensive experience working with early learners who need targeted support in reading, writing, and spelling to be fully prepared for kindergarten—often helping them exceed expected benchmarks. I also work with graduate students who may be returning to academia after time away and need support navigating the transition. In addition, I have spent years teaching and tutoring middle school and high school students in both traditional classrooms and one-on-one or small group settings.
My primary focus is in English Language Arts and Communication, including public speaking, writing, and reading comprehension. However, over the years, I’ve successfully expanded into additional subjects, using effective strategies that translate across disciplines. I also work with homeschooling families, providing structure, lesson planning, and executive function coaching to support independent learning.
I love working with students of all ages and am passionate about helping each individual reach their full potential. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d be happy to discuss how I can support you or your child’s learning journey.
I have been in education for over fifteen years. I have taught for many years and tutored for over ten years. My BA is in English Secondary Education and I am currently working on my MA in Effective Education. I have worked with students from kindergarten to higher ed. and I have completed formal training in virtual education. I have taught in and had my own children in the local school districts, so I am very familiar with state and local standards, which can help with any local needs. I am familiar with special needs and have worked with many students with 504 Plans and IEPs. I am more than happy to help students that this may apply to as well.

Typically, I like to speak to potential clients over the phone. They might share with me the situation they're in and what their hopes are. I then share more about myself and my thoughts on what they have spoke on. I can answer any questions and am always fine with a text or email follow up if more comes to mind. I will either meet with clients virtually (usually Skype or Zoom) or plan to meet in person. Depending on the situation, I have had students come to me, I have tutored at their home, and have sometimes met at coffee spots. I have always found that we end up creating a plan and scheduling our first official tutoring session at this time.

Amanda is a highly skilled instructor. She has the ability to communicate in ways that are beneficial for all ages. She is patient, kind and very reassuring. My husband has worked with her to help him with writing as he has dyslexia and had a stroke. She instills in you the desire to learn and to succeed without making you feel she has unrealistic expectations. You always come away feeling cared about and inspired. She can make challenging subjects seem more easy to learn. She’s very motivating. Anyone seeking tutoring with be extremely pleased with her. I personally find her an inspiration and would have loved having her teach me when in school. I would have loved school even more. My husband calls her his teacher
She was very patient with me when trying to fix minimal grammar errors. She also takes her time explaining what you did wrong and explains it very clearly. Overall very good tutor.
I was actually a student of Mrs Kenney when she taught English at our high school. She was always interacting with the class , checking on everyone, and overall showed she cared and loved her job. She covered everything she needed to in the allotted time and never got angry or upset for having to take extra time for someone. She’s very dedicated to her job and helping students grow and expand their learning. Everything from spelling,grammar,punctuation, etc. she covered it all loved doing it and always had the students respect and attention.
She was an AMAZING teacher/tutor!! No matter how brilliant or below average you were she always made you feel good about yourself!! She has a wonderful personality that will make you feel calm and comfortable. She will connect with you on any level but most importantly she always believes in you to be successful!! Shes smart, responsible, respectful, RELIABLE, kind, and is always in your corner! I’ve never met a teacher who can make you feel so smart and so comfortable being yourself. If anyone needs a tutor I recommend her times 10!!
She’s the most amazing teacher I have ever had and anybody would be lucky enough to have her. I’ve learned so much from this women, I wouldn’t have made it through the things I did without her.
Very great and Knowledgeable individual. I had her for my English class in high school and she teaches more than just English, she also teaches life lessons and kindness in everything she does. She’s one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and amazing at what she does.😊
Mrs. Kenney is a great tutor and amazing to work with! She is always super helpful and encouraging. She helped me understand difficult topics and helped me with reading comprehension. She also helped me with grammar mistakes and improved both my writing and speaking through presentations and projects. Overall, she is a great person and amazing tutor.
I loved having Ms. Kenney as a teacher! She was always in an upbringing and positive mood which time and time again lit up the room. She always showed the same respect to everyone and it showed time and time again with her winning multiple “Teacher of the Year” awards during her tenure at WASHS. Having her in class made the material extremely easy to understand. During lecture she rarely got off topic, yet always kept classroom conversation engaging as well as relevant and helpful. Overall, Mrs. Kenney is to this day one of my favorite teachers ever.
One of the most amazing people out there to work with. She really takes her time through the material’s and makes sure to go through them until you understand it fully. Best teacher ever!
She is absolutely the sweetest and most patient person I have ever met. She is willing to work with you and you can tell she loves what she does and she cares about her students. She goes above and beyond what she needs to do and she makes sure her students get what they need out her lessons. She is absolutely one of the best teachers out there! I love the fact that she is willing to help everyone and is so sweet about it. She is never mean and always kind.
I like how she works hard, is very caring and she always explains everything so you can understand it. She is very good at what she does and loves what she does
She is very passionate about what she does. She is great at getting to know the student and perfect a learning environment for them, it was a great experience for me. She is very personable. She helped me better my writing skills and reading comprehension skills. She has also bettered my public speaking skills for future presentations I will likely have in college! I one-hundred percent recommend Mrs. Kenney!!
She was very helpful with any questions students had and was always there to talk or help out with something. She always went out of her way to make sure students were comfortable and understood material. Her class greatly improved the confidence I had in myself and I attribute a lot of that to her help!
She was always patient and always knew what she was doing. Her class was always fun to go to and always looked forward to it. She was always there when you needed her.
She is such an amazing teacher , and person all in one. She is kind , caring , and listens to anything and everything. She helps you go above and beyond , she really wants her students to succeed . I don’t think that i’ve had a better teacher ever . She is always there to help when it is needed. Overall absolutely LOVE her , and her skills with teaching . She builds friendships with her students , and i believe that is something everyone needs. It helps them want to learn , knowing they actually have some kind of support.
The way she taught, she was very hands on and could explain any question that you have, she was very kind and would put her own personal things aside to help me. She was a very helpful tutor, and I would 100% recommend.
Amanda Kenney is an amazing tutor and teacher , she will always find ways to help you figure out what you’re confused on. She puts your learning as the #1 priority and makes sure you have all the necessities you need to be accomplished. She helped me a lot with understanding things i could never understand before having her as a teacher!
